1. EC: Now, we find there are specific conditions producing the conditions in the physical forces. They have to do with pressure as is caused on nerve centers that supply the blood and nutriment to functioning organs, and the organs become involved, and these conditions have been treated rather than that producing the condition.
2. Now, these are conditions as we find them in this body, [4300], we are speaking of, present in this room.
3. First, in the blood supply, with the pressure created in system, we have a very poor and unequal elimination through the emunctories and excretory system. Hence the overtaxing of the liver and its condition, and the same taxation in kidneys produced, however, by different conditions. There, then, is carried in the system (blood force we are speaking of) those toxins that should be eliminated, and this gives the dullness to the digestion, the languidness after attempting rest, often the body feeling more fatigued after sleep than before, the unequalized blood flow and the poor elimination producing the conditions in the organs direct, and giving the improper action to the digestive tract in that of the juices secreted to carry on the digestion in proper form. Hence, in the circulation, the blood becomes impoverished, and the dross of blood has engorged the spleen itself. (Hence the condition right across the diaphragm coming to the left end of spleen proper.)
4. In the nerve system we find, in certain centers of the cerebrospinal nerve system, certain segments that impinion the nerve to produce much of the condition in system, that in the lower portion of body affecting the kidneys and colon coming from condition in the second segment of the coccyx; that as is brought from reflex and is shown in the action of the pneumogastric and hypogastric centers affecting the liver and spleen direct, the kidneys indirect, as in the eighth and ninth dorsal region, the nerve system being better balanced by the condition, or cartilaginous forces being formed at these ganglion centers, and the nerve tissue pass through this new formation while the direct condition

is produced in the organs. We also have reflexly from this condition in dorsal region the affection to the sensory organism, and the body (mentally) can by taking thought trace conditions to almost the specific time of this condition affecting the system, the nerves of sensory system acting reflexly, producing then the reaction in the impressions to the sensory centers. Sympathetic system very good.
5. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF ORGANS PROPER, first, in brain forces, very good. Above the ordinary, yet one given to centralize and crystallize conditions.
6. In the spirit and soul forces well beyond the normal condition of many.
7. In lungs very good, save when over spasmodic conditions of nerve reaction from eighth dorsal gives the over supply through secondary cardiac forces.
8. Digestive tract shows by the reaction in spleen and pancreas that the acid condition created in the duodenum does not become assimilated in the system. Hence the gastric forces become overcharged.
9. Liver shows the engorgement of cell in right lobe, and left tends to become in the opposite condition. Hence the gall forces in the system show how conditions have been enacted in the emunctory proper, as does the glands in the small intestine proper, where digestion takes place after foods have passed from the stomach into the system, for assimilation for rebuilding properties for system.
10. Hepatic circulation spasmodic. High at times. Again below normal when toxins are absorbed in the system, as do other conditions through the intestinal tract show the action of these conditions.
11. To relieve these conditions, and to make this present condition of the permanent nature, we would take in the system those properties that will give the incentive for the action of organic functioning to become normal, and at the same time remove those conditions that create the condition in system in the lesions formed in sacrum and in the lumbar region. This would be done by manipulation, osteopathically, with electrical vibration for the intestinal tract, emptying same.
12. The medicinal properties would be in these: To one gallon of rain water add: Burdock Root.................2 ounces, Yellow Dock Root.............2 ounces, Black Root...................2 ounces, Yellow Root..................2 ounces,
4300-1 Page 3
Mandrake Root...............10 grains, Buchu Leaves................30 grains.
13. Reduce by simmering (not boiling) to one quart. Strain while warm and add three drams of Balsam of Tolu, and one dram of Balm of Gilead cut in four ounces of grain alcohol. The dose would be two teaspoonsful before each meal. Never overload the stomach with heavy proteins. Not too much starches at first. Rather those of vegetable and cereal forces, well balanced. Fruits a plenty, and plenty of water in the system at all time. Begin the adjustment through osteopathic forces, and these should be taken for at least twenty-three treatments, and the second quantity of medicinal properties. When the body has completed with these of this condition the body will be rid. The circulation, the weight, the conditions in the sensory system will have cleared.
14. DO THAT.
