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 the cure and relief of this body. You will answer the questions regarding this body that I will ask you.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here.
3. Now, we find there are those conditions with this body that may be corrected.
4. These are the conditions as we find them. First:
5. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this we find shows the effects of toxins as are carried in the system; also the inability of the rebuilding forces to that of the normal state, for the red blood is low in count.
6. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, this we find is gradually becoming worse and worse - that is, the body finds itself gradually becoming more nervous through the general sympathetic system, and those centers in the cerebrospinal system, that are impinged, cause a great deal of this nervous condition, as does the worry over the general condition of the body, and that as of the toxins and the blood condition.
7. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS THEMSELVES, brain forces very good.
8. Sensory organism shows some strain, as is seen in the eye, and the buzzings at times in ear - an unequalized condition. The katabolism of system low, the metabolism RACKED, as it were. With these two conditions, we find then the assimilation and eliminations are distraught at one another - that is, unequalized in the conditions as exist. In that portion of the system wherein the lesions, or rather adhesion AND lesions, from subligated centers, this causes the distress to the digestive system - the irregular heart action, and the CAUSE of same being strain in the mesenteric system, and in the whole of the lower digestive system. Then the organs of digestion are sympathetically unbalanced

- not organically, nor functionally, save as sympathetic. Hence the varied condition as exists in same.
9. Then, to meet the needs of the condition of the body at present, we would first have those subligations in the lower dorsal and upper lumbar corrected. Three to six treatments, or adjustments with three to six treatments combined with this, or before and after, see? making twelve to thirteen in all, should make the correct adjustment, see?
10. After these have been made, take this for the correction within the system.
11. First prepare 1 gallon rain water. Add 6 ounces Wild Cherry Bark. Reduce this by simmering (not boiling) to 1 quart. Then add: Syrup Compound of Sarsaparilla........1 ounce, Tincture Stillingia.................1/2 ounce, Tincture Yellow Dock Root...........1/2 ounce, Oil of Sassafras.....................20 minims, 10% Solution Iodide of Potassium.....20 minims, 10% Solution Bromide of Potassium....20 minims, Elixir Calisaya.....................1/4 ounce. Then cut 2 drams Balsam of Tolu in 2 ounces grain alcohol and add to the solution.
12. Shake solution well before the dose is taken, which should be teaspoonful 4 times each day, before meals and before retiring. About 30 minutes before a meal.
13. As for the diet, this has been VERY well given, but with these corrections we will find the body will put on nearer the normal condition.
14. When these medicinal properties are being taken, well that high enemas be taken occasionally, so that the colon is kept cleansed.
15. The adjustments will assist the system in breaking up the adhesions throughout the mesenteric system, see? Do that. Ready for the Questions.
16. (Q) Should the adjustments be given osteopathically or chiropractically? (A) Osteopathically.
17. (Q) What causes the very peculiar and annoying flutter which is sometimes around my heart, and at other times in my throat, or slightly lower down? (A) That condition as has been given. The improper condition in katabolism and metabolism, which is especially through, reflexly, of those conditions as go to make up between the sympathetic nerve system and the cerebrospinal nerve system, which form a conjunction near where the cardiac or secondary cardiac, which produces the condition

to this portion of the body.
18. (Q) What causes the stage fright feeling I have when in a crowd - at public gatherings, church, etc.? (A) Rather the smothery feeling - over sympathetic condition, as is seen, and as has been given, see?
19. (Q) What causes the severe burning at times across my shoulders and middle of my back? (A) Same over sympathetic system, and a regurgitation, as it were, of the blood supply, being below normal, entering the system, see? through the regular ducts.
20. (Q) What shall I do to try to regain the 15 or more pounds I have lost in weight this year? (A) Make these corrections. Get the system cleansed of the toxins, and we will gain the normal weight.
21. (Q) Is the fruit and vegetable diet I have been told to follow the diet for me? (A) This is very good. Do not eat meats so much, see? though it should be taken in small quantities occasionally, for the system demands same in its general make-up, see? but never hog meat.
22. That is all the questions.
23. Do these as we have given. First the corrections, see? Then those medicinal properties, as has been given, and we will find that within six to eight weeks we will be rid of this trouble and near to a normal condition.
24. We are through for the present.
