1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [347], and those conditions that disturb the physical forces of the body. Now, we find there are disorders and disturbances in the physical forces of the body. Often have the results or effects of the disturbance been described or felt as being the cause; yet, as WE find, the causes and the effects that are created in DIFFERENT directions are not one and the same, for the causes are rather hidden conditions, while the effects are rather apparent.
2. These, then, are the causes AND the effects as we find them in this body, [347] we are speaking of.
3. There are existent in the lower lumbar, and in the lower dorsal - as well as sympathetic conditions in the upper dorsal - those pressures that have made tendencies in the functioning conditions of organs. These producing tendencies, with an unbalancing of the constituents and elements that make up the vitality or vital forces in the body - through conditions, or too much of elements that have been BREATHED in by the body - that have affected those conditions, and ACCENTUATING those disturbances along the nasal, the throat, the whole of the those passages that affect the circulation to the head, at the same time hindering those of proper eliminations through the system - see? affecting the body in these directions. These are not always, all of them, apparent. Parts of those are apparent more often. Others are apparent as of existent conditions. We find the eliminations as related to both the kidneys and the alimentary canal rather irregular, with a tendency of highly colored urine at times; tendency of the swelling of joints, lower limbs, if exercised often. Pains in the shoulders and arms at times, and pains through a portion of the body just above the diaphragm, as well as along the lower part of the right side and across the back; the inflammation in the throat and bronchi at times; the eyes fail to function normally, and those conditions in the nasal cavity or passages become accentuated through the
347-1 Page 2
non-eliminations through these portions of the system; the eyes as if sandy at times, or misty. Pains through the temple and between the eyes; dull headaches at times; nausea soon of mornings; tendency of rising of phlegm. These are effects.
4. Now, to meet the needs of these conditions, we would find that in the first these conditions should be met by applications as would be made - not nominally, but following pretty well along nominal lines - by a specialist in this (of the eye, ear, nose and throat) of the OSTEOPATHIC school; so that those repressions, those conditions along the cerebro- spinal system - those in the lumbar, lower dorsal and upper dorsal and cervical - would be released. Then the effect and the applications necessary for cleansing the nasal cavity, the antrum, and soft tissue of the face. The change necessary for the eyes would be much less, and little or no operative measures necessary - though local APPLICATIONS, local cleansings, WILL be necessary.
5. With such eliminations, also we would find such an one would give those properties in a laxative manner that would accord WITH the rest of the system.
6. We would find that colonic irrigations would remove the pressure for the kidneys and the bladder, as WELL as prevent those fermentations of foods in system.
7. While the food values are well balanced at times, those repressions that have existed have produced for an unstabilization in the effects created. This we would outline as in keeping WITH the applications that would be necessary for bringing about a much more normal condition and reliefs for the body:
8. Mornings - those of the fruit juices, of prunes, of figs, or rhubarb, of such as this; altered occasionally with those of citrous fruits OR the regular dry cereals - these with cream or milk.
9. Noons - preferably green vegetable salads, combined with all those that may be used in such; using those oils or dressings that have the oil base.
10. Evenings - green vegetables, well cooked - both those that carry weight and that make for replenishing and rebuilding forces; making most of the proteins rather of vegetables than of meats, though certain meats and shell fish may be taken - or of fish. These, as we would find, would bring about the much more NORMAL forces for the body.
11. Would be well also, that after the beginning of these treatments, that the body use those vibrations that will be found in the Radium Appliance - Double X. These will be most beneficial. This should be worn across the solar

plexus or the back - see? and in the evenings when resting may be laid across the eyes or the forehead for three to five minutes each day. This will be most helpful. Ready for questions.
12. (Q) Can eyesight be restored to normal? (A) Almost to normal, will [if] these applications and these corrections [will] be made.
13. (Q) Will treatments outlined reduce slightly enlarged joints? (A) These have been mentioned, for these are of accumulations from poor eliminations and an unbalanced condition through the system. Do these as we have outlined. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " File
