1. LS: You will go over the body carefully, examine it thoroughly and tell me the conditions you find at the present time. You will diagnose the case thoroughly, giving the cause of the existing conditions, also the treatment for the cure and relief for this body.
2. EC: Now, we find the conditions are somewhat different in the body from that we have had here before. While the effects to the general system are changed somewhat, that effect as produced is somewhat similar.
3. The abnormal conditions are of the complications as show and exist in the system. Had that as suggested, with the seat and cause of trouble removed, we would have had a different condition, had those properties been given the system to create the equilibrium in the body, for with the bacilli as is being exhumed in the system from tissue involved, by the action of the streptococci in the blood, which now is produced by the lack of the system being able to create fast enough the destroyers necessary in the blood stream to care for that element produced in system that becomes so detrimental, or as we have the complication in the eliminations in the system, for with the nerves' system so overtaxed, especially where the conjunction between nerve supply to the system and the creating of the new blood to rebuild in the system, this produces then the strain, the debility, the inertia in the body to meet the needs of the system. This, as we find, is gradually becoming localized in the right side, in and about the lacteal ducts, and the inflammation as is exercised in the blood is the inability of the excretory systems to combat with the elements produced by the overtaxing in the body. This we see exemplified by the action of the nerve system as has been exercised upon by the increased vibration through electrical forces. The stimulation as received in system from this over vibration assisted the body, until the nerve system not able to be brought to the state of resistance necessary for the condition created in tissue and in functioning of the system proper. In the reaction then in system, we find

these conditions as necessary to be met:
4. First, in the cerebrospinal system, in the nerve plexuses, especially of the solar plexus proper and the secondary solar plexus, the lesions (floating) of the nature that prevents the system of having the necessary incentive. By over-stimulation through electrical forces this has become deranged by the depression through the congestion as is produced in lesions. The mesenteric system does not function normal or nominal flow of the leukocyte and blood stream through liver, pancreas and the jejunum of the whole intestinal system. Hence the intense pain at times as is produced across the body, near or just below the diaphragm. The system attempting to create its equilibrium brings depression to the right side and across the body.
5. In this then we need to have those adjustments corrected through deep manipulation, osteopathically given, so that the system may be so stimulated as to throw off through the regular channels of the emunctories and the eliminating centers those poisons that are accumulating in the system. Giving those properties as were given before, [Life Everlasting], that reduce temperature and that build in the system the resistance in blood stream, in tissue in the body. Either given internally or massaged into the lymphatic circulation, so as to be taken into the body. These would be in armpits, in groin, in the abdomen. Those properties of Hydrastis. This we find would be better or more responsive than by taking the medicinal properties internally. There should be no water taken except very pure water and carrying with same those properties of both elm and yellow saffron. Well that these (the saffron) be made in tea. Not too strong. Elm be in most of the water, or all water taken outside of that.
6. Will we do this we will find we will bring the better conditions for this body, [3775]. Necessary that this be done, that the system may be able to respond to the reducing of temperature, the eliminations as should be set in liver, in intestinal tract, in kidneys, without overtaxing them, or without the inflammation becoming so centralized in tissue as to produce deterioration in the system itself. Otherwise, we will produce those destructive forces as will be found in tumors and in the forms of pus sacs forming in system.
7. Then, the deep manipulations should be given each day, that the body may rest well. The water should be given nominally, regularly. The diet should be in keeping with the conditions necessary to build in the system those of the blood rebuilding and of the nerve supplying conditions for

system. Green vegetable forces. Little or no meats, save the juices of meats may be given at times. No stimulants carrying alcohol, unless of that nature that supplies with the alcohol produced in body. With this we will bring the better conditions - and bring about the nominal forces for this body, [3775].
8. The properties as would be massaged into the body; that is the Hydrastis (in liquid) should be applied at least every other day, until we find same being worked, as it were, through the emunctories or through the system, producing eliminations. The vibrations of electrical forces would be well, but rather use those of the ultra-violet rays, are these applied at all. These would be better when the system is better able to be strained, as it were, by electrical forces or light forces for the system. Then using those of Alpine ray or Rino's rays for the body. These would be given every two to three days, after the system is better able, though, to stand same would these be used. We are through for the present.
