1. EC: Yes, we have the body here.
2. Now, we find there are those conditions in the physical forces of the body that cause distress in many ways. While the physical suffering is not always so severe, the anxiety and the undue expectancy of conditions gradually creeping over the whole system produces great mental anguish that is severe in itself to the physical well-being of the individual.
3. Now, we find there are apparently many complications that go to make up the physical conditions, yet these to be met or combated with are of a specific nature to prevent that form of paresis in the physical locomotion.
4. Now, these, then, are conditions as we find them in this body. First:
5. IN THE BLOODSTREAM, this we find below normal in the quantity and in the makeup, or the constituents or elements show the effect of poor circulation in various portions of the system, as well as an inability of the bloodstream to clarify itself through various portions of the organs.
6. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, in this we find the greater cause of disturbance, for in this the attack of those conditions that are to bring about those troublesome conditions in the body, or those that prove the most detrimental, is the attack as is made on the sympathetic nerve system - not only from the standpoint of the mental anguish, but of the physical conditions as exist, or as were produced by cellular forces not coordinating. Hence producing those disturbances that bring on the distress in the lower extremities, and especially from that center above the lower ganglion in the 2nd sacral, for there the centralizations of conditions have brought about disturbing elements. In the effect as is produced from this hindered cellular condition, the radiation to the locomotories in the lower extremities, as well as reflexes to the digestive system, to the various portions of the elimination, cause the distress in

circulation, the troublesome conditions as are existing through the pelvis and the organs of the pelvis, in the disturbing conditions of the normal functioning of the liver and of the kidneys; for a disturbance sympathetically to the plexus as governs the hypogastric and pneumogastric, and also those of the mesenteric system, produces poor elimination, and misdirected elimination. The capillary circulation becoming nil at times, through the high hepatic condition produced.
7. To meet the needs of the various conditions, as we will find, will take care, persistence, and consistence in the application of those correct vibrations necessary to bring about an equilibrium in the nerve system and a cleansing of the blood supply, that the system may build more resistance, for with the constant drain on the system in the present condition, and without a vibratory rate raised to the extent that there will be created a reserve, the system gradually loses its ability to meet those hindrances in the physical forces of the body.
8. We would, then, apply first those vibrations as will be found in that prepared in this manner: [Wet Cell Appliance]
9. To two (2) gallons of rain water, we would add: Copper Sulphate...................1 pound, Sulphuric Acid C.P................1 ounce, Common or ordinary zinc..........15 grains, (small amount, but this we begin with at the first), Plain Charcoal...................10 ounces. (Clarifies solution).
10. This should be kept in a glass container - preferably a container an inch to two (2) inches taller than the quantity of solution - with a wooden cover. In this we would place a one-half (1/2) inch bar of carbon steel, and a one-half (1/2) inch bar of nickel. To the ends of the bars protruding above the board cover attach wires (copper insulated). To each of the ends of the wire - that is, to the ends not attached to the posts or anodes - attach plates of nickel. These plates each day shall be attached (one would be the larger - which is attached to the nickel anode or post - and attached to the umbilicus; the other attached to the 2nd cervical) for at least one hour and a half. No vibration will be experienced at the time of this being attached attaching the one to the cervical first, see? After three (3) days there may be some nausea felt, but keep this up for at least six (6) weeks, changing solution at the end of three (3) weeks and adding three (3) more DRAMS of the zinc at that time.

11. After the six weeks change as will be brought by the changed vibration in this body of [229], we would then give that necessary to overcome those conditions in the physical forces of the body.
12. Ready for questions.
13. (Q) Is there any organic trouble at all with this body? (A) Only as a secondary nature, produced by the incorrect vibrations set up in system by the misdirected eliminations and conditions created by same.
14. (Q) Should the battery be attached each day? (A) The battery should be attached each day, preferably as the body lies down to rest.
15. We are through for the present.
