1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time, giving the cause of the existing conditions; also the treatment for the cure and relief of this body. You will answer any questions I might ask you regarding same.

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

3. Now, we find there are those conditions in the physical forces of this body that, were the corrections made, there would be more normal functioning of the body. These conditions have most to do with the eliminations in the body.

4. Now these are conditions as we find them with this body, [4221] we are speaking of. First:

5. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, in the circulation we find there are at times evidences of the conditions existent in the functioning organs. There are evidences in the functioning organs of the hindered circulation at times.

6. In the elements and constituents of the blood, these we find very good at the present time. The numbers in the red blood cells being near normal. Those in the white blood and leucocytes are unequally divided at the present time. Hence the evidences as are seen in the effects that are created in certain of the ligaments and tissue in various portions of the body, especially in the nerve center and ligaments about the lower plexuses of locomotion, and the effect created by conditions in ligaments and tissue from the brachial plexus upward.

7. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, this very good in many respects. However, we do not find perfect coordination between sympathetic and cerebrospinal nerve action, produced by this same condition of improper eliminations from the system.

8. In the centers that govern the eliminations as are under direct reaction from solar plexus and the ganglia governing the sympathetic plexus from same, we find rather an engorged

condition. Hence the body often finds that involuntary forces in muscular reaction become a voluntary action.

9. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS THEMSELVES, in brain forces very good.

10. In the organs of sensory system, these function under the strain of disturbed nerve supply and an incoordinating nerve reflex. Hence there are times when all of the organs of the sensory system do not respond normally. Not a hindered vision, or hearing, or speech, or taste, or refractory nerves, yet the second of force response is often necessary for the body to bring same to normal action. An effect of disturbed conditions in the supply to the nerve centers, and a hindered elimination.

11. In throat, bronchials, and lungs, these are very good in many respects, though the lungs and bronchials show the effect of this hindered circulation and poor elimination.

12. In the digestive system - this shows the effect rather of the poor eliminations from the body, and at times through nerve reaction gives the body trouble, or causes distress.

13. The liver and the kidneys show again the effect of the condition, especially for the engorgement of the liver, and the activity as is caused by same in the kidneys attempting to equalize the conditions in the body, produces a taxation that becomes detrimental to the organs themselves, and at times the circulation carries back into the system those properties that should be eliminated from the body through these channels, as well as through others. Hence we have a high hepatic circulation, a depleted capillary circulation, though when the body eliminates the nearer normal, then the body is free - more free - from those distresses as are produced throughout the system.

14. Then, to meet the needs of the conditions as exist in this body, [4221], we would add those vibrations to the body in such a way and manner as to create a nearer normal equalization in the eliminations, rather than elimination, for each center through which elimination should act in the body should be brought to its functioning in near normal manner.

15. To reach same would be to stimulate each center along the cerebrospinal system in such a way and manner that the body would receive the proper incentive from nerve plexus, and hence clarify the blood stream and stimulate each functioning organ through its proper channels, as to bring about a normal, and normal functioning, organism throughout the body.

16. We would, then, each evening before retiring, massage thoroughly into the cerebrospinal system that of equal

parts of olive oil and tincture of myrrh. Heat the oil, then add the myrrh. At least half a pint would be used at first. Then at least an ounce of each, each succeeding evening, for at least twenty-eight (28) such treatments. Especially massage this into the sacral and lumbar region. Rub until the body absorbs the properties being massaged into same, and after at least ten (10) such treatments have been given, begin wearing that pad that gives the vibration that clarifies the blood and electrifies the nerve system, as is found in the Radium Appliance, see? Wear this across the solar plexus center, see?

17. Do that. Ready for questions.

18. (Q) Which pad should be used? (A) The regular pad. In the digestive system, be careful of the diet, in creating the new blood supply, under the stress of the manipulation and the vibration as will be set up in this body. Do not eat too much meats, and never any hog meat. A little beef or mutton. Plenty of fish or fowl may be used, but no hog meat for this body; for this is detrimental to the mesenteric system, and especially the kidneys, see? Fresh vegetables, especially plenty of tomatoes, and those that grow above the ground of every nature, especially, for the body. Plenty of iron, as is found in all green vegetables, especially greens and soups of every nature, see?

19. We are through.
