1. EC: Now, we find there are conditions in this body that are abnormal that may be corrected. These have to do with the general condition produced in system by the abnormal condition existing in functioning organs, due to improper elimination as produced by the condition of organs direct. Now, the effect may be assisted and brought to a different vibration in the body. That producing it is different. In the whole system the general debilitation being that of the effect produced in the system through the various changes that come by or through this condition.

2. Now, these are conditions as we find them in this body. First:

3. In the circulation we find this above normal in pressure, in quantity and in the elemental forces these are burdened with these toxins, dross and with the forces that should be eliminated in portions of the system.

4. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, we find the pressure on nerve ganglions produces the taxing to the physical and to the mental at times, so that the body becomes almost incapacitated of controlling itself through physical forces by nerve tension as is produced in the trunk portion of the body, in branches of the solar plexus centers through that condition in the intestinal tract, and the effect it produces in the nerves governing the functioning of the liver, the spleen and in the pancreas.

5. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF ORGANS THEMSELVES, we find as these: The whole nerve system of the sensory organism involved in condition, and that affects the sympathetics through the ganglion that connects between the sympathetic and sensory organism. Hence the depression or pains at times that occur in the body under the shoulder blades, or through that portion about the sixth and fifth dorsal vertebra.

6. In the throat, lungs, larynx very good except when overtaxed.

7. In the digestive tract we find most of the trouble that has been produced and is produced at the present time, so far as the seat of the trouble is concerned. This gives the depression through the system and the inability of the body to digest those things that may be or that are active in the system at times. Hence the engorged condition of spleen, the engorged condition of the liver, inactive, and under the pressure of these forces as magnified in the circulation. In the upper portion of intestinal tract we find lacerations that give depression, and also those of the toxins from the system to be absorbed and keep these conditions in pressure in blood and in the nerve system producing the taxing of the body throughout. The body is not always sick, it is not confined. It is active through sheer will and mental force, and the using of stored energy in the system. The hepatic circulation high, and the kidneys are depressed, and show the sedimentary force as is being eliminated in the system through these channels. Hence the bladder is at times taxed and shows some inflammation.

8. In the locomotories and those portions of the system affected by this condition in circulation of blood and nerve tissue, and the carrying of this bacilli in the system, such as we have in locomotories, in pelvis and in ilium plexus, shows the depression, and produces merely the subnormal or the distress in the activity of these portions, though not inactive.

9. Then to give the relief to this body, and bring about the nearer equilibrium, we would give this into the system, taking exercises of specific nature for the whole system: To one gallon of rain water, we would add: Sarsaparilla Root.............2 ounces, Burdock Root..................2 ounces, Yellow Dock Root..............2 ounces, Yellow Root...................2 ounces, Black Snake Root..............2 ounces, Buchu Leaves.................10 grains, Elder Flower..................4 ounces. Reduce by simmering (not boiling) to one quart. Strain while warm and add three drams of Balm of Gilead and four ounces of grain alcohol, using the buds, you see, in the Gilead. The dose would be a teaspoonful four times each day.

10. The exercises would be for that portion of the body that is under stress at each time the body should take the exercise, which is night and morning. At times we will find

this shifted from the abdomen to the pelvis, again to the extremities, again to the limbs and shoulders. Each should be exercised in the manner as to give the release of the tissue and muscular forces of that portion of the body. Make, specifically, the body take quantities of water. Take this as medicinal properties. The body does not drink sufficient water.

11. Do that. We will find we will bring better, nearer the normal conditions for this body.
