1. GC: You will give a physical and mental reading on this body, with suggestions for the improvement of either of these.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body, the mental forces of the body here. In the physical, while the body is very good physically in many respects, there are those conditions existent in same wherein, were the more care and attention given to same, the functioning of the organs of system and the corresponding effect as created in the system, through the mental equilibrium as prepared in same, would bring the better conditions for the physical, mental and spiritual forces of the body.
3. Now, these are the conditions, then, as we find them in this body, [183] we are speaking of, see? [183]. First:
4. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, in this we find the body very good in some respects, in others shows the effects of the conditions that are exhibited and inhibited in the system. Below normal in the pressure at times, and the accentuation of the capillary circulation as is produced in system at times, shows the effect of the poor assimilation and eliminations as are created in the system at times, see?
5. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, this, as we see, the taxations as have been produced in the body by these exaggerated forces as have been brought about in system, and as are produced in certain centers and ganglions in the system. In these ganglions then as show these conditions, there are, with that exhibited condition in the blood supply, those contractions about these ganglions that produce the taxation to the system at times.
6. IN THE FUNCTIONING THEN OF THE ORGANS THEMSELVES PROPER, in these we find a very good coordination, when we consider the condition as exists in the blood supply and nerve system, for those of the special senses of the system show the greater strain as is exhibited between that of the sympathetic system and the coordinating forces with the cerebrospinal, see? That is, many of the conditions that have become as the

action of the body involuntary; that is, through the continued action of same, do we find those accentuated conditions existing that cause the distress in the capillary and in the lymphatic circulation of the body, see?
7. Then, to bring the more normal condition to those portions of the body that are under this stress and strain of the system, there should be those specific conditions for the system that would bring the better eliminations, for the tendency is towards the constipation in the system, as is shown from that existent in the lacteal ducts and in those portions of the jejunum in the system, that produces this congestion. This bringing then to the mesenteric system those distressing pains occasionally that come to the side and lower portion of the body, see? This also produces the irritation that we have at times in the capillary circulation as is produced by the leftover of the drosses in the system, and these give the effect as seen in those abrasions that are produced in the system, this condition in those portions where the drosses are left in the centralized portion of poor eliminated conditions.
8. Then, to bring the normal effect to the body, we would have these applied to this body. First, we would take that in the system as would create the more lacteal fluids for the system and less of the acidity as seen in the functioning of the liver and of the pancreas, taking then, each morning, those small doses of the Bicarbonate of Soda, one-half teaspoonful in full glass of water, to which has already been added fifteen minums of Syrup of Sarsaparilla, see?
9. Then we would take those plain exercises as should be taken for the body before retiring each evening, a full exercise of the whole body, with the body in that position or condition where the full action of system may be realized, rubbing spine after same thoroughly with cold water, the whole length of same, until the circulation is brought to each center of same, see? With this elimination, with this increased circulation to all of the centers from which the forces of the body are exercised, we will find we will bring the better conditions for this body.
10. We would, for the mental condition, keep those applications as have been set nominally in the system for the creation of the ability to concentrate those faculties of the mental forces as produce the expanding of same. The mental abilities, the mental capacity of the body is good, yet it may be too narrow in its expansion for the best development for self, either physically, mentally, spiritually, morally or financially - see?
