1. LBC: You have before you Mrs. [3993] of ... Go over her carefully, examine her thoroughly and tell us what is the matter with her, if anything.
2. EC: She is sick all over. We begin here from the head. Even in this shows the poor elimination in the circulation and weakness in the blood, or in its rebuilding properties to furnish the supply needed to rebuild the forces used by the living, or the body in action, through the head, or through the whole organism of the body. We find very poor capillary circulation; strong hepatic circulation, hence a little temperature here at times. The body has become emaciated, through the properties living on the lymphatics in the system. We have the troubles in the body, reflexes and organics. The body is of a more or less neurosthenic [?] temperament to the body. The body in itself has suffered from ailments in the whole system. We first find it through the solar plexus regions, and its appendages, that is, through the digestion, through the intestinal tract and around the lower edge of the diaphragm which we find here to the frontal part or just between the breast bone, above the pulmonary system, a lesion formed from the first. We find the same, or reflexes from same, through the pelvis, or that under action of the kidneys in themselves. Hence the inflammation produced through the whole system, by the action of the two organs, the liver and the kidneys acting in conjunction. The splenic forces in the body, having been used up, or burned, have become in the form of an attribute condition. Hence the lack of the amount of force used to supplying into the brain in itself, or the condition of the mind itself, as we have it. Not as we have a degenerate condition of the mind, through the sensory system, but a condition in the mind, through the action of the splenic forces on the brain in itself, or the rebuilding properties, of the forces here - She forgets, you see. The reflexes we have to the liver and through the digestion, from these, produce in part the conditions we have through the pulmonaries themselves, or the opening of the cells in the lower end, producing an anemic condition, or opening the cells, anemic glands, or lack of amount of blood passed

through them. In part, we find these coming from secondary conditions. The impression of the mind, suffer from these, and produce their effect to the organism of the nerve force itself - it is of high tension. That is, the impressions of themselves, of what is said from the outside, until we imagine these forces, and they become exaggerated in the system, from what they are.
3. We have a very weak body, but the stimulation, or strength from the outside forces applied, produce a different effect from what we have in the system. We apply the forces from this:
4. We should have to the body, along the spine, cold applications here, from the first lumbar to the 6th cervical. Warm applications from the diaphragm, upper part of the abdomen or what would be opposite from the 2nd lumbar. We reduce the temperature in the body, and equalize the circulation, and the lymphatics, both from the pulmonaries, through the abdomen, and through the sides here, of the liver, and intestinal tract, by equalization. Electrical forces applied along to these. Not every day, (but beginning today), but as the temperature is increased, baths. Then reverse these. Into the system that which creates a force, or an impression more to the mind that what should be taken into the system, except keep the intestinal tract in as good a condition as can be. Soda in its mildest form, which would act as a restrainer here, in the digestion to produce an acid condition in the intestinal tract. Equalization of the forces through the water here, and electrical forces, which act as a sedative to the nerve supplies through these forces of the body being kept intact.
5. (Q) Any other treatment you would prescribe? (A) Do this. .
