1. EC: Now, we find there are conditions that are abnormal in this body, and they may be corrected. They have to do with the functioning of organs as affected by the circulation in its functioning in various portions of the system, and brings to the body distress through the nerve system by pressure created in centers by this condition. Hence, we find the real seat and cause of condition submerged.

2. Now, these are conditions as we find in this body, [4218] we are speaking of. First:

3. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this we find below normal in quantity, produced by the inability of the system to assimilate properly that taken in the system for the rebuilding cellular force, and lacking in vitim necessary to produce this. Hence the excess of white forces and lymphatics, and the absence of sufficient of the hemoglobin to produce rebuilding or stored energy. This, we see, is produced through the glands in the upper intestines, where new blood affects the chyle. Hence we have at times distress along the tract of this duct. That is, through the right shoulder, toward the neck you see, under the arm.

4. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, we find some of the centers, and especially the epineurium of the centers, produce inflammation and pressure. This especially do we find in the fourth lumbar, and in the second dorsal. The effect then is headaches from a portion of the face, through side of the temple at times, distressed feelings all over the whole system, with a tingling sensation, as it were clear to the feet, extremities. From the other centers produce the sensation as if the body was walking on eggs or air. Achy, heavy-laden throughout the lower portion across the sacral plexus. In that producing this is, as we find, from the lack of the blood forces to supply sufficient nutriment. Hence the system calling, as it were, on the supply produces irritation. This condition, then, produced being that of reflexes.

5. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF ORGANS, brain forces are very good.

6. The sympathetic nerve system overtaxed.

7. Sensory organism very good in all the functionings.

8. Throat and lungs and larynx very good, so far as organic condition. At times we have specific condition from congestion.

9. Digestive tract, body often feels hungry, yet little suffices, for we find the over amount of lactic forces in the stomach proper, so that when acted upon by the pancrean juices the liver in its secretions, as is given in the system to act upon that taken in the body, as foods find little to act upon in the proper manner.

10. Organically, the digestive tract very good, yet in the pyloric end this condition exists, which is a lack of lactic producing hydrochloric forces or to produce hydrochloric.

11. In the hepatic circulation we have a submerged circulation. Hence low in pressure.

12. In the kidneys overactive, and at times the distress to these portions of the excretory system, as caused by the inflammation in the lumbar region and reflexes to the body.

13. Capillary circulation low. Tendency to show in the system the portions not eliminated properly in liver and kidneys. Hence repression in circulation through this portion of system.

14. To give the balance in this body, that will create the equilibrium, correct incentives for the functioning of organs normal, and for the blood supply, take this in the system: To one gallon of rain water, add: Sarsaparilla Root........4 ounces, Wild Cherry Bark.........2 ounces, Yellow Dock Root.........2 ounces, Calisaya Bark............1 ounce.

15. Reduce this by simmering (not boiling) to one quart. Strain and while warm add three drams of Balsam of Tolu cut in four ounces grain alcohol.

16. The dose would be two teaspoonsful after each meal.

17. Let the diet be not much of meats. Rather of as much green vegetable matter as possible, preferably those that grow in the ground, and those above ground that carry much nutriment for the nerves.

18. Also well for the body to take vibrations all along the whole length of spine, preferably those electrically driven. Take these persistently and consistently for at least five minutes. Treat the spine from the base of brain to the end of spine, and across abdomen at the diaphragm line. Deep across the sacral region.

19. Do this, and we will find within forty days the body

will be brought to its normal forces.
