1. GC: You will go over this 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 cure and relief of this body.

2. EC: Yes, we have the body here.

3. Now, we find the conditions to be met and dealt with, with the physical forces of this body, are that of incoordination, as is seen manifested in the locomotory centers; also in the reaction throughout the whole system, and while there are some physical developments in the body, yet these, from time to time, appear to give the improper distortions, as it were, to other portions, or functioning portions of the system.

4. The cause, or the conditions bringing this about, we find, are of the prenatal, and of that nature also of the character and presentation of the body at the time of birth. In this still birth, as it were, we find these lesions as were formed caused this pre-condition that brings about now these effects in the system.

5. Now these conditions may be met, with care and with attention. It will take persistent and consistent and concerted action on the part of those handling and developing as it were, those physical conditions as exist in this body, [3945], we are speaking of.

6. To bring this to the normal, though, this may be accomplished through this means and manner - this being, then, the first stages to be dealt with, and in this manner - and these should be carried on in this manner for at least six weeks. Then we would find development such as would necessitate the changing of the conditions to meet that developing stage as will be reached by the body through normal conditions, and through changes as will be brought about by the application of these forces:

7. First, then, using that of the osteopathic adjustment and manipulation, for the extremities, and for the centers,

especially in the sacral, coccyx and cervical regions, see? By the manipulation we mean those manipulations of the muscular tissue about the centers in these portions of the system that have to do with the locomotion, and with the various forms of the development of the nerve centers and nerve tissues as radiate to the various portions of the body from these centers - applying, then, during this whole period, for at least thirty minutes each day, those vibrations as would be found from this character or battery:

8. To 1 gallon of rain water, we would add: Copper Sulfate..................1 pound, Plain Charcoal..................6 ounces, Sulfuric Acid C.P...............1 ounce, Common Zinc.....................3 drams. This, as we see, charges itself. This should be made and kept in glass container with a wooden top. Through this top there would be made holes for the two poles to enter the solution. These poles should be at least of the half inch square steel - carbon steel - both poles. To these two poles would be attached the small copper wire (insulated - small). To each end of these wires anodes or small plates. The larger plate attached to the left side of jar, or of pole, when facing the container. This larger plate would be attached at the opposite of the umbilicus, or at the 9th and 10th dorsal, see? The other anode, or plate, would be attached (these may be attached by bands, or with something that would hold these in place, see?) to the wrist one day, to the ankle the next, see? This should be kept, and the solution changed every three weeks - or making two solutions during time, see?

9. Do that. Then we would give the information, through these same sources, as to meet those conditions as will arise, and as are to be corrected to bring about the normal conditions in this body - for through this vibration there will be set up the better coordination through nerve and muscular forces of the body, and the development of the sensory and the sympathetic nerve system to coordinate with the brain forces, the development of physical movement, and the action of the bone structure of the body itself proper. The corrections will be made, osteopathically, in those centers and for those conditions as are given.

10. Do that at present.

11. We are through.
