1. LS: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly and tell me the conditions you find at the present time. You will diagnose the case thoroughly, giving the cause of the existing conditions, also the treatment for the cure and relief for this body.
2. EC: Now we find in many respects the body is very good. There are those specific abnormal conditions that affect the system, and these may be corrected with assistance and care and attention to those conditions that produce same, are the suggestions as given but carried out in whole and not just in part.
3. These conditions, as we see, are of a specific nature, yet produce conditions that are of the changeable nature in the body. Hence the system has become affected throughout and more than one portion of body is involved in the conditions.
4. Now these are the conditions as we find them in this body, Mrs. [85], we are speaking of. First:
5. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this is very good in many ways, yet there are times when the overcharge in the system of refused forces, or of used conditions in system, where the plethora is produced, and when it is produced in the lungs proper through the excess of circulation as is caused through these, that the blood becomes surcharged and the eliminating centers taxed beyond their normal capacity. Under such conditions there becomes other organs involved, as we see, through the liver, the whole hepatic circulation, and the kidneys more (the kidneys) by those properties as taken for the relief of this condition than of the organic conditions of organs themselves. Hence we see the sympathetic system in the nerve supply becomes involved, and the organs themselves through the overtaxed sympathetic condition show their relations to the condition as is produced in system under such strain.
6. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, in the cerebrospinal nerves, we find in the region of the 4th, 5th and 6th dorsal there has been at times back a lesion produced by subluxation of one of the dorsals themselves. The subluxation has in part been

alleviated. While the strangulation to the sympathetic nerves of the secondary cardiac have not been relieved, this produces the choking as is produced in the bronchials and larynx, and the asthmatic condition as produced in lungs proper. This then becomes reflexly to the bronchials, throat and lungs. At such times we find the blood surcharged. As given, at such times we find the other organs of the system become involved before or after through their cycle of functioning, as is produced by the overtaxed condition in the system.
7. In the functioning of the nerve portions of the body from this, we have times when the breathing in the lungs becomes of a strangulated nature, producing the inability of the correct vibrations in their functioning. Hence the blood becomes choked, fullness of flesh to face, the spasms of asthmatic conditions being produced under such strain.
8. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS THEMSELVES PROPER, brain forces are very good.
9. Organs of the sensory system under the strain of a sympathetic condition as produced in the cerebrospinal centers that connect directly to the auditory, to the vocal, to the brain forces themselves proper, and the sensory system becomes involved wholly under such conditions, as is illustrated in the condition as is produced in the nostrils proper at such times.
10. The bronchials, throat and larynx show the effect of the plethora, conduced by the action of the condition in the dorsal region, and the lungs themselves show the effect, not of an organic condition, but of a specific condition produced in the deflected circulation of rebuilding forces and of the blood supply through secondary cardiac forces in the lungs.
11. Heart's action at such times becomes above normal. Under the pressure or strain of those conditions taken for relief of such conditions becomes abnormal, or above the normal.
12. Digestive system spasmodic in its action, as is produced by the retraction as is indicated in the system through such conditions, bringing then the congestion in liver, and as we shall see, necessary then that the diet of the body be taken care of in the condition to be met.
13. Hepatic circulation cold in a nominal way, yet overstrain is produced in the kidneys in attempting to alleviate the condition as is produced by this overtaxation.
14. The care, the attention in many ways, as has been given the body, the condition as is care of colds, congestion, drafts, of such conditions, are beneficial to the body and
85-1 Page 3
assist.
15. Then, to bring the normal condition to this body, we would find as in these:
16. First, as for the diet, let those be little of sweets, save as would be found in honey and honeycomb of the better nature. That is, as that produced by sweet clover, buckwheat, or such natures.
17. As to the diet in cereals, those that are of a pre-digested nature, or as much of the rough foods as possible, taking fats of meats rather than of the lean or fleshy portions. Not in large quantities, but that the assimilations may be better corrected in the system, and a great deal of the vegetable forces, but only of those that grow above the ground.
18. Correct by deep manipulation that lesion as is formed in the dorsal region, applying at the same time those direct rays of mercury lights to the body, that we may relax the congested portion and give the proper incentive for nerve nutriment and tissue to perform their normal functioning through this portion of the body, taking at the time that stresses are brought to the system through the action of this subluxation, those properties as would be found in five to ten grain tablets of Calcidin, preferable that these be dissolved before they are taken in the system. Well that these be taken at least two each day, preferably in the evenings, when the congestion shows or the spasmodic conditions occur from the condition in bronchials and larynx, until the congestion is removed in lumbar regions, and in the dorsal regions, these may be taken one five grain tablet dissolved every hour until relieved through the respiratory system through the action of the calcium and iodine as is absorbed by the system to relieve the condition.
19. Do this, being persistent, being consistent in the diet, in the action of the system, in removing the congestion and in the applying of the rays as is necessary to rejuvenate those of the so long-remained tissue that has been congested. When these are done we will remove and cause the normal forces in this body, Mrs. [85].
20. We are through.
