1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [261]; this we have had before.
2. There has been the tendency for neglecting the activity of the hepatic circulation until there is the increase in the quantity of toxic forces such as to create a temperature in the body.
3. As we find, in the immediate, we would use those things to decrease the tendency of the circulation to the upper portion, by tepid sponge baths.
4. Stimulate osteopathically those centers that will reduce these distresses in this direction.
5. Then we will find better conditions for this body.
6. Ready for questions.
7. (Q) How is the blood pressure? (A) Naturally, with the increase of the toxic forces, this is very irregular - and the lack of sufficient quantity in the present.
8. (Q) Is there any obstruction in the intestinal tract? (A) Only the accumulations from toxic forces. And, as we find, these may be better removed by the eliminations through the stimulations as indicated; and by the application of those things that may SOFTEN this area that is distressed - or the packs of castor oil. Apply at least three to four thicknesses of flannel wrung out of castor oil as hot as may be handled with the hands or received by the body; across that portion of the abdomen on the right side and across to the left, you see. We find these will materially aid. Do that. Reduce the temperature by stimulating to the lower extremities, and stimulating the activity of the organs in the digestive and assimilating system. See, it's an overtaxation and a lack of proper coordination in circulation, that has reduced the condition to these

pressures.
9. (Q) How is the condition now? (A) Rather acute.
