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.
2. EC: Now, we find there are some abnormal conditions with this body, and much of the condition has been treated for EFFECTS rather than the CAUSE.
3. Now, these are conditions as we find them in this body, [4262], Freight depot, ..., Kentucky. First:
4. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this we find shows much of the condition as exists in various portions of the system. Hence this disturbance as is produced in the cuticle, and in the functioning of certain organs bring about the effects that have been treated, while the real existing conditions are produced from some other causes; for the blood becoming overcharged and overtaxed, as is seen from the condition in the mouth, tonsils; also as that as has existed for some time in the colon; these are the seats and the cause of the conditions as exist in other portions of the body, or the seats of the trouble.
5. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, this we find shows the effect in many centers and ganglions of the conditions existent, for the taxation as is produced on the functioning organs of the body become deflected in the centers as govern these conditions, as are seen in various portions of the body - 5th cervical - 4th and 5th dorsal - solar plexus especially, and the lower lumbar. Hence we see the condition as exists in the organs of the system:
6. Brain forces very good.
7. Throat, lungs, bronchials, larynx, the effect of this over stimulation, and the condition as is produced in the bronchials, larynx and throat, come from that over stimulation, and of specific conditions as exist in mouth and in other portions of system.
8. In the heart's action - sometimes above, sometimes below the normal in pressure.

9. In the digestive system, this shows much disturbance, both through the supply of the blood forces in system and through the condition as created in the solar plexus center from that condition of taxation in other organs and centers. Hence the cardiac - secondary cardiac, ilium, solar plexus, and the plexus governing the hypogastric and pneumogastric, become involved in the condition. Not as specifics; rather as a STRAIN from the conditions as exist in portions of the body at times, and in their cycle of functioning.
10. In the colon, ascending especially; this we find engorged, and the feces show the effect as is produced in this. Hence the overtaxation to the kidneys in their attempting to eliminate, the liver being dormant in functioning, prevent the eliminations and assimilations normal.
11. Then, to bring about the better normal conditions for this body, and to give the better incentive for the improvement in conditions, we would do this for the system:
12. First, through deep manipulations, osteopathically given, correct those conditions in the cerebrospinal system; also those as join from the sympathetic nerve system in the various ganglions along the cerebrospinal; taking at the same time in the system these properties (At least twenty-six osteopathic treatments should be taken.): This as the medicinal properties: To 1/2 gallon of rain water, add: Plain Garden Sage, dried......6 ounces, Dried Ambrosia or Ragweed.....4 ounces.
13. Reduce this by simmering to 1/2 the quantity. Strain and add 2 drams of Balsam of Tolu, cut in 4 ounces of grain alcohol. adding THIS to this solution: To 8 ounces of rain water, add: Wild Cherry Bark..............4 ounces.
14. Reduce this by simmering to 1/2 the quantity. Strain. Then add 4 ounces cane sugar, dissolved in 1 ounce of HOT water. Then reduce AGAIN to 1/2 quantity, adding 1 ounce syrup of Sarsaparilla.
15. The two solutions put together and shaken well when each dose is taken, which would be teaspoonful 4 times each day, taken before meals, before retiring.
16. We will find within 60 to 90 days the body normal. Do that.
17. We are through for the present.
