1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [482] - this we have had before. Now, as we find, there are many changes in the physical forces of the body from that as we have had here before. While many conditions show an improvement in the general physical forces, there is more physical resistance, there are better conditions in the blood supply, more vitality in the resistance that is exercised by same, there are those conditions - as we find - in the digestive system that have, in a manner, been of more or less long standing, that causes or produces the distresses to the body in the present. There having been those positions, or conditions, where the stomach itself low or out of position, and in this manner many of the impulses from the nerve centers become over accentuated to portions of the lower portion of stomach and duodenum, causing or producing in the activities of same in digestion an excess of activity in that particular portion. Hence we had first that of a thickening of the walls of that portion of the organ itself. As a result we had easily the digestive system upset, with severe headaches following in a particular portion OF the head - in the back or base of brain, and to the top and front of head. These produced often nausea, straining at times either to empty the stomach by regurgitation or overtaxing with those of the sedimentary nature, or of a nature to empty same, produced that of a LACERATION in the portions. Hence we have, as it were, an exhuming from those portions of same. This, however, is not in any manner malignant in nature; rather that of an over sympathetic condition produced, as has been given or shown, from an excess of impulse to supply those juices from that particular portion of the organ itself. As is indicated by the character of the exhuming, or stool, or as would be indicated by the blood tests themselves, the NATURE of the condition is rather NEARER what would be called ULCER, yet it is NOT - in its TRUE sense - that.
482-3 Page 2
Rather as of a condition where the thickened walls, by strain, break - and the fluids produce an excess in the digestive system, that makes for for the extreme pain and for the GENERAL reaction through the system from same.
2. Then, in meeting those conditions in the present, we would find that with the low form of electrical vibration given, so that the effects of same pass directly THROUGH the system itself, would tend to disintegrate those vibrations that are set up at present as IMPULSES from that particular center that has been under strain and stress. Prepare, then, that form of electrical vibration as comes from the plain wet battery, and attack both of the poles to one plate that would be, when ready for use, attached to the body between the 5th and 6th dorsal center. When ready to be attached, the feet should be placed in lukewarm water, and keep same on - ranging in periods in the beginning from 20 to 25 minutes, to 30 to 40 minutes, AS the body ADJUSTS itself to same. These we find we would take each day. That it may produce some nausea at times may be expected. When such occurs, REDUCE the periods of time, taking at such periods this as combined: Cinnamon water...................1 ounce, Lime water.......................1 ounce, Iodide of Potassium (10% solution)...............15 minims, Bromide of Potassium (10% solution)...............20 minims. The dose would be a teaspoonful of this in half a glass of water.
3. Or, it may be kept separate - as the preservative:
4. Take 1 ounce of the lime water, (Keep separate - if this is taken in the form of the homeopathic manner, as a spoon up or spoon down) to this add the Bromide of Potassium (the quantity as given). To the Cinnamon water add the Iodide. This will aid as a sedative. Not in the manner as to produce irritation, for while the lime water is an irritant - combined WITH same is that that is Iodide, or IODINE, reacting to the system, as a healing; while in the next half hour - if these are taken in this manner - the other dose taken - we have BOTH acting as sedative to the system.
5. Following the appliance of the low electrical vibration, we would massage the body - especially from the shoulders to the lower portion of body, with the low vibration from electrically DRIVEN vibrator - see? Not a massage, other than ELECTRICAL massage, or ELECTRICALLY DRIVEN massage, for it is to act as a stimuli to all the segments and ganglia along this particular portion of the spine.

6. We would also find, should this become irritating, that we may (that is, the whole battery vibration) aid by taking IN system the animated or carbon ash. This should be in very SMALL doses, if taken, and use WITH same - over the abdomen and stomach - the violet ray vibration. We would PREFERABLY use the other, see - for these should act, and will act, are precautions taken, to DISSEMINATE the whole of those vibrations as have been set up. We will find also that the body should be very mindful of the diet. There should be THIS as an outline. To be sure, it may be changed or altered from time time.
7. Do not add too much sweets, and very little if any SALT in same - but as of mornings, the citrous fruit, PREFERABLY lemons and grapefruit.
8. Noons - a little soup, but NEVER any canned soup for THIS body, or any that has had any form of preservative with same. Always make same, the broth, either the fresh vegetables or fresh meats and vegetables, but NONE of the meat. Particularly none of hog meat, unless later there is taken those that are of the gluten nature, to produce in the system more of that in the blood supply as aids in coagulation, when those properties then would be taken of the pig's feet, or of the muscle or gristle of same. This will include also, in the evening meals, those of the well cooked vegetables, but only those of the leafy nature - or that grow in pods; not the bulb nature. No potatoes, no carrots, no beets, no turnips, nothing of that nature. The TOPS of these may be taken, and may be eaten, but not the bulb nature.
9. In the matter of the water, would be well - especially in this surrounding - that there be kept near those occasionally of the lithia that may be added to same. Also occasionally there should be put in the water as taken, that of the yellow saffron, or of those teas that would be made from same. Those of the camomile will also aid, and at times those also of the elm. This, with the regurgitation, would tend to at times sour. So be very careful of these. They may be taken, though, close to those periods when those either of the sedative - or spoon up and spoon down medicines - are taken for the system, see? Ready for questions.
10. (Q) What dosage should be taken at the time, if the spoon up and spoon down is taken? (A) Half a teaspoonful.
11. (Q) What causes the pain at the end of the spine, and what will relieve same? (A) This is produced by this condition as DRAWING in the

5th and 6th and 4th dorsal area - pulls UP the end of the spine. Hence those battery activities RELAXES the system, the spinal cord itself, or SYMPATHETIC spinal cord, for this is purely from the sympathetic. These conditions occur when there is any excitement, or when the body has had undue activity standing on the feet - see? for it produces a pressure, but with the battery, as given, with those vibrations from the sponge vibration over the system - be sure, as given, that at least from the shoulders - and of course it may be to the head, but at least from the shoulders down - from the brachial plexus center to the end of the spine - this be thoroughly given, and do not mind giving it for thirty to sixty minutes, relaxing the body thoroughly.
12. We are through for the present. Copy to Sister, Mrs. [340], and daughter, Miss [421] " " File " " Ass'n
