1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now, the conditions as we find in this body biologically speaking or pathologically speaking would be a very interesting case for it has to do with the conditions as exist in the tissue of the body itself and is produced by imperfect elimination or by the elimination being physically misdirected in the body through physical conditions that have existed in the body from inception.
2. Now, these are conditions as we find in this body, [4401] we are speaking of: The blood forces in the body have become so beset or insipid, conditions have so long existed within the cellular forces within the creative functioning cells making the new blood forces as to contaminate the whole being or entity. The number of red blood over-abundant, but the character very deficient, the number of the white and of the lymph are very anemic in their functioning and produce within the tissue in many places over the body the breaking of cells that allow the gathering of forces that produce a cycle or a condition within themselves that gradually packs up or absorbs the circulation as it flows from the arterial circulation to the vein such as we find here on the forearm, on the shoulders, portions of the head where, we have had through the cavities even, and through all of the antrum cavity both of facial and of torso. The nerves in the body are nihil save through the action of the sympathetic system and the co-ordination produced by its action, that is, the sympathetic system or the cerebrospinal. The mental and soul forces govern the body and make a wonderful manifestation in the individual as to the age of the spirit or soul of this entity. The functioning of the organs we find among these some conditions that to the body have become normal that to other bodies would be abnormal conditions. That, we find, as in the face and eyes and in the cellular forces in some portions of the body. The digestive forces and lung forces are very good considering the conditions in the system. This physical body of [4401] may be physically benefited and assisted to gain control over, with patience and persistence and by following closely the lines that will give the

natural inclination of the emunctories to reverse, as it were, the state of being of their functioning, at present. This would be accomplished through those elements that will give the most of elemental or nature or vibration or force or of the creator in the system. This we will find in these elements - do this in this manner - give into the system through the digestive forces, this:
To one gallon of rain water or distilled water, add:
Sarsaparilla Root...................4 ounces, Yellow Dock Root....................2 ounces, Mandrake Root.......................5 grains, Prickly Ash Bark....................2 ounces, Wild Cherry Bark....................2 ounces, Black Root..........................2 ounces, Calisaya Bark.......................1 ounce.
3. Reduce by simmering to one quart, strain, while warm add four ounces of grain alcohol and three drams of Balsam of Gilead. The dose would be tablespoonful three times each day. For the abrasions or to cause the relief to the swelled or plethora conditions apply a stew or poultice made of Mullein leaves. Inhale this through the lungs, see:
Oil of Eucalyptus...................2 ounces, Rectified Oil of White Pine.........1 ounce, Benzosol............................1 ounce.
4. This would be placed in a glass container with a tube, (which could be corked), and when the solution is to be inhaled, shake well, heat until vapor is thrown off and inhale through the mouth into the lungs to assist these in clarifying the blood forces as they are carried there for clarification. Let the diet be only vegetable matter, no meats an as much of green as possible, see. Do that. Be persistent and gentle with this body and we will find we will give the relief desired. We are through.
