1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [2209]. Now, we find disorders of a distressing nature at times throughout the system. The elemental conditions are such as to cause a combination of disorders. The seat or cause of condition alters, as to varied effects as are produced by applications made, or conditions arising from same; so that, as WE find, these are as effects just now in the system:
2. Debilitation in vitality, in strength, in blood supply, in the plasm as makes for building energy that is coordinating in system. Tendency for there to arise adhesions, from the lack of that quality in the blood supply as will produce normal circulation through the lymph and emunctories of the body. That tendency for the internal system, as related to the producing of that necessary element in the gastric forces of the stomach and intestines, as to carry on the proper assimilation or peristaltic movement through the body. The effects of producing the adhesions in the intestinal system, in the organs of the pelvis, these give the greater distress and acute pains through the body. The effects to the circulatory forces, to the extremities themselves.
3. In meeting, then, the needs of these varied conditions, we will find that - were we to bring that for a near normalcy - all conditions must be considered as a whole, and not as one specific thing, other than for a little period of time, or an alteration of the cycle of effects as maybe seen in a functioning organism.
4. In meeting, then, we would find that, that activity in the system to change the vibratory functioning of the organs themselves, must be principally through the taking into the system of herbs or of vegetable compounds, as a stimuli, or as a cardiacal effect on the whole system; which will aid in that assimilated being distributed IN a manner as to KEEP the lymph circulation - or the tissues of the body - nearer in an active manner.
5. Prepare first, then, as this - making this as a carrier:

6. To 16 ounces of distilled water add Wild Cherry Bark 6 ounces. Reduce by slow boiling to 1/2 the quantity. Then add: Simple syrup........................ 2 ounces, Compound Syrup of Sarsaparilla...1 ounce, Tincture of Stillingia.........1/4 ounce, Syrup of Rhubarb...............1/2 ounce, Tincture Valerian..............1/2 ounce, Elixir Calisaya................1/2 ounce, Tincture of Capsici..............2 minims, Grain alcohol....................2 ounces. Shake the solution together before the dosage is taken, which should be half a teaspoonful 4 times each day.
7. Every other day there should be the application of the ultra violet ray, or light, for at least 2 minutes in the beginning - and at least 38" to 40" from body. PREFERABLY, apply this to the spine. The time may be increased as the body adjusts itself.
8. We would also use the manipulative measures, either those of the osteopathic or of the general or gentle massage, every other day.
9. The diet should be - this as an indication, though it may be altered as conditions arise in the body:
10. Mornings - gruels or light cereals, altered occasionally with the citrous fruits. Eggs, if taken at all, only the yolks - and this either raw, IN milk, or soft boiled or coddled.
11. In the noon - these should consist principally of the raw vegetables, fruits, and nuts in SMALL quantities.
12. Evenings - would be the juices or broths of meats that are fresh and without fat, or wild game. Here there may be taken small quantities of starchy foods, but these should always have a dressing that is not too oily.
13. Small quantities of olive oil should be taken continually; that is, as the system is able to absorb same - beginning with a few drops - give small quantities of pure oil every 2 or 3 hours.
14. Keep down temperature by the oil and alcohol rub, especially along the spine - from the LUMBARS to the head, see?
15. Do that. Then, in 10 to 25 days we will give the changes necessary. Ready for questions.
16. (Q) What originally produced this condition? (A) From serums in the system, taken externally, affecting the lymph's circulation.
17. (Q) What oil should be used with the rubs?

(A) The Russian White Oil, or any of those that will be absorbed in the system. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " Ass'n office " " Research Department Two copies to Dr. Lydic
