1. LBC: You have before you Mr. [3848], ... St., Louisville, Ky. Go over him carefully, examine him thoroughly and tell us what is the matter with him, and what his condition is now.

2. EC: Yes, we have had him here before. The condition is somewhat better, or improved from what we had, that is, toward a normal condition of the body. The lesions along the spine which are not taut, as produced by a wrench or misplacement of a vertebra, but floating lesions here from over-stimulation of the blood supplies to these, overtaxing of the cells or walls along these at the 6th, 7th, 8th dorsals, are in a better condition. We have a better, and more unison in the nerve forces. Still we have the same reflexes, or pains to the head, or flow of blood. That is from the condition of the blood itself.

3. The propelling powers of the muscular and nerve forces along the spine produce the condition as we have it. The relaxing of the muscular force in the body has produced more unison in the nerve force, and stimulated the force to a better condition, as we have in the system.

4. Keep the forces here. This has been of long duration. It will take a long time to take them away, with this manipulation of the body, but then it is removing it. If he had more open air, or if the body were not taxed by the use of the rebuilding force in the body so much, the body would improve faster. But we have to keep the same stimulation, either that of muscular force, or exercises of the limbs, or the muscular force relaxed through the force used in the body, to produce the condition as we have. Keep out of the system as much as possible, stimulations to excite any of the gastric juices of the stomach. Take that which easily assimilates, and will assimilate everything that passes into the stomach before it enters the stomach. Thorough mastication of the foods. Not too much meats. That would produce over-stimulation in the blood, and indigestion, and excite the forces through the same conditions we have - the ends of these forces where we have lesions, or those that govern the upper orifice of the stomach and liver.

5. Keep more air, if possible, to the body, and the same

relaxation we have. The body is improving.
