1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for the improvement of same. You will answer any questions I might ask you regarding this body.
2. EC: There are many changes in the body since last we had same. Many for the better. At the present, we find some of that same condition as produces the inflammation through the mesenteric system, also that affecting the circulation and the functioning of the organism through the secondary cardiac forces. This, as we see, comes from the inability of the body, through the toxins as are absorbed through poor elimination, bringing the too much relaxation to portions of the nerve system, especially in the plexus of the mesenteric forces as in conjunction with the hypogastric and pneumogastric. This in the pneumogastric being that, that causes the pressure on lower portion of the heart's action, through the diaphragm, and the condition in the pulmonary circulation; that in the pneumogastric being in the plexus governing the lower portion of circulation.
3. Then, to give the relief at the present time, we would take small quantities every little bit, until the condition is relieved in the intestinal system, those properties of plain lime water. Just a little sip, until the nausea is relieved in the stomach.
4. Then take properties, or broken doses, of salts, with the camphor, and one drop of laudanum or paregoric in same. Every third to fifth dose of this taken, add one drop of turpentine.
5. In the lower portion, well to reduce inflammation and to keep the circulation in better form in lower portion of body. Use enemas of a cool or cold nature, that we may keep the colon cleansed to prevent absorption of conditions from these toxins.
6. Well, too, that the manipulations of the cerebrospinal, through osteopathic forces, be applied. That necessary for the general elimination and assimilations in the body, relaxing those taut in the lower portion of the solar plexus

and tauting (or making tension) of those in the upper lumbar, that affect directly the mesenteric system, relaxing those in the upper dorsal and lower cervical, that gives more of the blood circulation to the system, and relieving the pressure or pain in head and causing the drowsiness and uneasiness through the whole system.
7. Do that. We will bring the better conditions for this body. Leave off those properties that affect the system direct (salts and the combinations with same) when system is cleansed.
8. Watching carefully the diet for same, only giving those properties as will be stimulating, yet as sedative, in action. Well that weak wine, or stimulants of that nature, be given the body, little at a time.
9. (Q) How often should the dose of salts be given the body? (A) Every three to four hours, until the system is clear of that producing the trouble in intestinal tract.
10. (Q) How much should be given at a dose? (A) Small doses. Half a teaspoonful to level teaspoonful in glass of water, with five to six drops of camphor, with two to three drops - one drop of laudanum, or two to three drops of paregoric. Third to fifth dose, one drop added to this of the turpentine. Lime water, spoonful at time, every few minutes, or fifteen to twenty minutes apart, to reduce the nausea. Cinnamon may be added after osteopathic treatments are given, so that assimilation may take place in the body. Enemas given whenever temperature is above normal - once to twice, three times a day if necessary. The stimulation may be taken two to three hours apart, using the alcoholic stimulants. With those of the diet, that of liquid diet, see? Beef juices or chicken juices, or something of that nature.
11. We are through for the present.
