1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time, giving the cause of the existing conditions, also the treatment for the cure and relief of this body. You will answer any questions relative to this body that I will ask you.
2. EC: Now we find there are abnormal conditions with this body, and these may be corrected. These conditions we find arise from specific conditions existing in the system.
3. Now these are conditions as we find them in this body, [781], we are speaking of.
4. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this we find (the blood) carries that property that should be eliminated through correct channels, but is carried and is forced in the capillary circulation, until the eliminations there partake of the character of that producing these conditions. Then we have very poor assimilation, and a deflected elimination, as far as blood supply is concerned. The quantity of red blood is deficient. Destructive and rebuilding cellular forces, or red blood cells, are involved in condition. The leucocyte and red blood that forms basis for lymphatic and white blood cell does not give the sufficient of the plasmatic properties to produce coagulation. Hence abrasions, and the cuticle becomes dry, breaking, scaling, and condition healing from within, through the effect of the dermis of skin proper.
5. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, this we find very good, yet taxed often by the conditions existing in the system, especially the centers in the lumbar and solar plexus region.
6. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF ORGANS THEMSELVES, the body very good in many respects. There is the lack of those rebuilding cellular units to furnish all structural portions of body. Hence the abnormal development in manner in the bone structural forces in body. This produced by the parasite [pinworms?] in system (intestinal tract) that destroys this gluteus [glutenous?] force necessary to create

this rebuilding cellular force. Also deflecting the circulation, and the body overtaxed through the digestive system. The disturbances in the circulation, the tendency towards temperature at times, the deflected circulation, the nausea and headaches, or dullness in headaches, the production of this parasite in intestinal system. Some we find in stomach, yet the intestines show more of these that are destructive to the system.
7. To eliminate, then, these conditions, and to bring the body to the normal condition, would be:
8. First, we would have the body skip one meal, taking nothing save water.
9. For the next meal, eat raw cabbage, or celery and cabbage. Not an extra large quantity. Only put salt on this.
10. After this has been eaten four hours, begin with small doses of this:
11. To half a glass of water, add: Phosphate of Soda (plain)........1/2 teaspoonful, Syrup of Sarsaparilla..............5 drops, Oil of Turp........................1 drop, Eucalyptol.........................1 drop.
12. Take these every hour, until at least five doses have been taken.
13. This will purge body and create temperature and nausea to the system, but we must eliminate these conditions, would we assist the body.
14. May be necessary that enemas be given to relief inflammation in the colon. These may or may not, depending upon the diet that has been given before we begin with these properties for the system.
15. After the system has been cleansed, we would then begin with the diet that will rebuild the system to the normal development, keeping a well balanced diet for this body.
16. Gruels, fruits, for the breakfast meal.
17. For lunch, that rather light. Sweets of the fruit juices, or of pies, with milk.
18. Evenings, of meats. Not too heavy, and a well balanced vegetable diet, of those that grow above and below the ground.
19. Do this, keeping plenty of water at all times in system.
20. The condition as appears on the body [ringworm?], would be well to use Yellow Oxide Ointment and dust with Stearate of Zinc, or with the Boracic Acid dust.
21. The conditions in bone structure are the effect of these conditions in body.

22. Do that. We will bring the normal forces to this body, [781].
23. (Q) Do the conditions of the teeth have any effect on the general health? (A) We have given. These are the effect, rather than producing an effect.
24. (Q) Is the half a glass of water, with Soda and other ingredients, one dose? (A) One dose.
