1. LBC: You have before you Miss [3851], who is in this room.
2. EC: Yes; we have her here.
3. LBC: I want you to go over her carefully, examine her thoroughly, and tell us what is the matter with her.
4. EC: Now, you see here, in this body of [3851], a condition in the blood itself here of an impoverished nature to a supplying to all of the nerve centers of the body to its force along the spine, especially through the organism of the liver and the kidneys, and has produced a lesion along the spine at the 1st, 2nd and 3rd lumbars, which produces at times a condition which has grown into the system here from this condition existing, until we produce to the circulation, or to the action of the muscular and nerve forces in the body a spasmodic condition; or the involuntary contraction of the muscular forces in the body and the extremities, a drawing of the spine to the head, pains through the head at times, both preceding and after a spasm to the head and body; arms taut, muscles of the face contract at times, and the whole body becomes in a sort of rigid condition.
5. From the spasmodic condition, or the lack of supplying to the circulatory system to supply nutriment to the forces here, we produce an abnormal condition between the cerebrospinal and sympathetic nerve system here at the junction of the celiac. The condition in the body has produced from that, or assisted by the irritation that is brought about from reflexes, the condition through the pelvis and intestines at times from the lack of the hepatic circulation to carry the forces from and eliminate them through these organs themselves, the liver and kidneys, and they became involved with the condition that is produced to the rest of the system from this condition in the body. It is not that way all the time.
6. (Q) What was the beginning of this trouble? (A) The first was from the stomach, and then from the condition produced to this from above, you see, along the spine.

7. (Q) Any other conditions you see? (A) Reflex conditions from these show themselves, of course, over the body. These are the conditions to eliminate and produce a normal body.
8. (Q) What treatment would you prescribe to remove these conditions and bring the body back to a normal condition? (A) Take into the system that of things that produce a constitutional, that is, to the stomach, liver and kidneys, a normal action and to betterment of the condition of the blood forces in the supplying of these, and the removal of the conditions as we have along the spine. Take into it that of salines, with those that we would have of a compound of this: Burdock Root....................1 ounce, Yellow Dock Root................1 ounce, Sweet Bitter Root...............1 ounce, Sassafras Root..................1 ounce, Flower of Elder.................2 ounces, to six pints of water, reduced to a tea consistent of four pints, sweetened with sugar. This taken into the stomach, you see.
9. (Q) How much at a time? (A) Small dose; dessert spoon.
10. (Q) How often? (A) Twice a day, and then the removal of the condition from the body as we have along the spine; that is, here from the 1st, 2nd and 3rd lumbars. Watch the action of these medicinal properties, or herbs, as we have, not to produce an overtaxed condition to the digestion; that is, by filling the stomach too full at times. Keep the impression to the body here to control itself at the time of the spasmodic condition produced in the body; don't get scared of herself. This will remove it if she will take these: by the electrical force, or the removal of these by manipulation, either or both.
11. (Q) Manipulation with the hands? (A) Or electrical forces either. A lesion, you see, is a formation of a sympathetic condition which keeps or carries the body from one to the other, gradually, you see. From the first condition of the body it has been gradually harder and then reversed to easier, then oftener. As shown through the pelvis and the condition of the generatory organs themselves, the kidneys, spleen,

heart, the stomach and the liver all become involved through sympathetic condition. We have not organic troubles of these; simply through that of a laterial, or the functional. The action of the supply of the blood is, as to forces of gravity, above normal; that of a heavy red blood in the body - a heaviness or thickness to that; a lack of the hemi-golbin to be removed. A fullness to the capillaries at times of this action of these forces, and retarding of this has brought about by a reduction of the body itself through these taken into this body in the form of this stimulant. The action will be to that of the blood and its forces, hence the condition will have to be watched; not to take cold in the body. The blood will become thinner and a more normal condition. Take care of the feet, keep them warm. A warm condition over the body, but not too much of a closeness at sleeping times. Not a heaviness of the air at sleeping times. Keep away from dampness. Exercise of the system should be good, but not too much, but a full action of the forces from the hips and loins up, as bending the body forward till the hands touch the floor, and the hands above the head. Take more of the salines then we had, of meats, proteids and gluten.
12. (Q) Any other treatment? (A) Follow these along as we have them here, and it will bring about a condition improved. Then follow the conditions as they appear.
