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 give the cause of the existing conditions, also the treatment for the cure and relief of the body.
2. EC: Now we find this body very good in many respects. There are some abnormal conditions in the body that at the present time cause some distress, and if not corrected in the proper way and manner will produce in the physical in the days to come those conditions which will bring much distress to the body.
3. In the physical, these conditions we find in this body, [4313] we are speaking of.
4. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this we find very good save for the over supply, and the pressure this produces with the dross that should be eliminated in a normal, nominal, way, and at times this excess, especially after the body has eaten heavily, especially of certain foods, this distress is more susceptible, and the show is more emphatic than at other times; this produced, as we see, from specific conditions and brings about certain conditions in the circulation in the body. The coagulation very good. The circulation very good, save as these conditions arise in the body, and until the system adjusts itself gives some distress in the capillary circulation, also in the lower hepatic circulation.
5. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, this we find is the condition that brings, and that is, the center of the condition being in distress in this body. This especially do we find in the 9th and 10th dorsal center. The segments there show an impingement, that the nerve supply from these to the organs of the lower portion of stomach are deflected in the assimilation in the system, and affect direct the operation or the secretions as supplied in the system by the pancreas. This then is the reflex condition as we find in the kidneys and in the lower limbs at times, as produced from this condition existing in the system. Produce this also at

times in the body: Languidness, easily irritated, the mental faculties seem to be dulled at times, when they should be alert. For the mental forces, as we shall see, are especially active in this body, and the body is gifted in many ways. The reflexes then should be corrected here, correcting the major condition first, then those reflexes as come to the lumbars and to the upper portion of the body, in the reflex of this condition in the sympathetic system, and in the sensory system, do we see the reaction of this condition as exists in this dorsal, as given.
6. IN THE ORGANS OF THE BODY, brain forces very good.
7. Reaction through the sensory organism perceptible at times, giving the incentives for easy congestion in portions of the body.
8. Lungs, throat and larynx very good, yet the reaction of this condition through the pneumogastric shows the effect of the lower bronchials at times.
9. Digestive tract shows how the condition affects the digestion, for there are times when the body finds that it has an abnormal appetite either way. At times no desire for food, at others an abnormal desire, which at times is easily satisfied, at others is not. The system attempting to create that within the body to meet the needs of the deficiency, and of the over supply in the lower digestion, which produces the conditions that cause distress in the body, and if not corrected would bring on further distresses and make the body susceptible to many other ailments of the functioning of the lower hepatic circulation, bringing distresses, weakening the muscular tissue in the pelvic organs and about the kidneys, bringing on conditions that would be distressing in later life, as well as bringing to the body those conditions as we find in muscular forces, especially about tendons by the reaction of poisons assimilated rather than eliminated in proper channels.
10. Lower portions of the body, as given, under the condition. The conditions in lower limbs, along the sciatic nerve, a reflex condition, as also the condition in the arch and in the portions of the feet.
11. In the conditions to be corrected, then, we would by deep manipulation, osteopathically given, correct that condition in the dorsal region, that the body may eliminate properly, keeping at all times quantities of water in the system, that we may thoroughly cleanse the whole intestinal tract of all poisons in body.
12. Do that, and we will find we will bring the normal conditions to this body, [4313].
13. That of the spiritual and mental forces in this body, we
4313-1 Page 3
find one who has, as we have given, exceptional qualities and abilities when applied in the correct manner. There is not sufficient attention given to the mental abilities of the body as applied to the spiritual forces and elements; that is, not making application of those truths as the entity itself knows in itself is the correct way at all times. While hindrances come to the entity, it should with its mental and spiritual status know that so long as the effort of self is within keeping of His laws all is well.
14. Follow closely in that straight and narrow way, ever keeping that injunction that the meditation of the inner self at all times be holy and acceptable to Him.
15. We are through for the present.
