1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [120]. This we have had before. Now, in some respects we find the conditions are bettered. In other respects not so well. There is not as much drainage or elimination from the system as there should be. There should be, with those applications as go toward assisting the system in eliminating those destructive forces to the tissue, to the sinew and the muscular forces, that as has been given that would cause the eliminating system to throw the condition OUT of the system, rather than loosening same, dissolving same, and it - the condition - in the form of those forces as go through the system as the eliminating dross, or eliminated dross - FINDING in various portions that as produces heaviness and stiffness; for, to RELEASE and then to have same NOT eliminated must necessarily cause those returnings of conditions that give distress to the body.
2. Then, more along the lines as suggested, of the massage that would ease the body - when those applications are given. These would assist much better. Do that. Ready for questions.
3. (Q) Can anything be done for the soreness of the throat which comes on every evening? (A) Were those of the massage, as has been given [the osteopathic manipulations], used more thoroughly over the system, we would find these conditions WOULD NOT occur so often. Those pressures as exist in the upper dorsal and in the cervicals must necessarily cause that throwing out in the system of those properties in the system, where the system attempting to abridge the condition and to guard against any reaction in system, THIS causes the distresses as experienced in this direction. A natural cycle of the functioning system.

4. (Q) The discontinuance of aspirin leaves the patient in a very weak condition. Would it relieve this condition to take the chloride of gold more often than every other day, or would some other remedy be advisable for this condition? (A) With the discarding of the aspirin, the gold may be changed in the manner of administering - giving same EACH day, increasing the amount - or the drops - until there is given five to seven drops. Then skip one day, and begin over again - increasing until the seven to ten drops are reached again, giving the bromide WITH same in the same proportion as has been given. Or, the aspirin may be given, will the OTHER properties NOT be used, in much smaller dosage. This will strengthen and aid the body. But, we find - now - these conditions to be met with, to be dealt with, in this body - [120] we are speaking of:
We find there is that condition wherein the lymph forces in the system are turned into that of the hardening, rather than giving the elasticity to centers about the extremities, joints. This causes the pain - this causes these destructive forces. This condition is produced, primarily, from an improper functioning of the glands as secrete the various cellular forces in the plasm [plasma] of the system, and that division in assimilation becoming the first destructive force.
Now, in taking the system as we find same - in the addition of gold with bromide of soda, we enliven the glands of the system - all reproductive glands; that is, the necessity of the system to be able to resuscitate vital forces in the lymph, in the capillary circulation, in the arterial circulation, is based first, primarily, on the character of assimilation and the number or the count of the plasm [plasma] going to make up the various elements. The increasing in the system of this dissolvent, or this energy necessary to produce the proper vibratory forces in the assimilated conditions in the system, increases the amount of destroyed forces that are to be eliminated from the system. The greater character of elimination can be carried on by having the proper coordination between the various MANNERS in which poisons of different characters are eliminated from the system. Not having any ONE suffering at the expense of another, for we merely transfer the destructive forces in such measures.
Then, the applications of the various exterior forces, as have been given this body, fill a place in the assistance

for the system - but to leave off a portion is to start and not go all the way, but all should coordinate one with another. Do that, and we will find bettered conditions for this body.
5. (Q) What causes the desire to urinate constantly and the burning pain in the bladder? (A) This has just been described, when we have given that the various forms of which the eliminating centers or portions of system suffer at the expense of another! Were the manipulations or the MASSAGE - not manipulation in the sense of the regular osteopathic manipulation, but of the massage over the system, we would produce coordination in the system and not cause one portion to suffer at the expense of another. That's what produces that condition!
6. (Q) Should the violet ray treatments be lengthened? (A) Lengthen when the dosage of gold is given, not until then.
7. (Q) How much should it be lengthened? (A) Lengthened sufficient to relax the body, or to cause the capillary circulation and those portions of the system that it is followed out on to react or - not until moisture is produced, but until the capillaries show their reaction to the appliance, and applied energy.
8. That is all the questions of this body.
9. Now, if we will follow these as has been given, we will find much bettered conditions for this body. We are through with this reading.
