1. EC: Now we find there are some abnormal conditions for this body. While in the physical forces the body is very good, as far as the functioning of the organs, yet in the creating of the elements in the body for the rebuilding and replenishing we find some disturbance, and this disturbance at times brings some distress to various portions of the body. In the eliminating forces of the system especially, in that of the emunctories in the kidneys, where we find the system absorbs some toxins. Hence, in portions of the system there is that element carried in the system producing in the tissue and ligaments the strain on muscular forces, and of some of the larger nerves paralleling those muscles and ligaments, as in lower limbs and feet, and in trunk portion of body, about the ilium plexus.
2. BLOOD FORCES, in the blood forces, then, we find this below the normal, and this causes in the liver and the hepatic circulation the overtaxing of this. Hence at times the nausea of mornings, when the system from reaction produces in the gastric portion or in the duodenum that of lacteal forces, rather than acid, though of a lactic acid force in the stomach, resulting some headaches in the frontal part of face and eyes, reached by this same reaction in the pineal gland, reaching to the hypogastric center affecting the kidneys and bladder reflexly.
3. NERVE SYSTEM, in the nerve system, this, then, we see, becomes rather a sympathetic than of an organic nerve condition, though specific nerve centers become involved in the general condition of the disturbances in the system. We have then, in the intestinal tract, the inclination for constipation, produced by lack of secretions in the system when reflex forces appear in duodenum from pancrean and liver conditions, and at other times the colon shown congestion, or a catarrhal condition, produced by foeces [feces] lying long in transverse colon.
4. R E L I E F, to give the best to this system, and bring the normal incentives to the functioning organs, we would take this in the system each morning, for a space of at

least three weeks. Take half a teaspoonful plain phosphate of soda in half glass of water, to which there is added (when this is taken) three drops syrup of Sarsaparilla, one drop of Sassafras, one drop Canadian Balsam.
5. In evenings, every second day, we would take the vibrations from electrically driven vibrator over the whole length of the spinal column, and especially along each side, and those centers governing the sympathetic and its action with the cerebrospinal. That is, the first cervical, or just at the base of the brain, and at the last lumbar, and upper portion of sacral region, for three to five minutes each treatment.
6. Then to the frontal portion of the body, across the diaphragm, and in and about the region of the colon, commencing from the right side in the groin, coming up and across then down to the left side, to the left groin, and down the sciatic nerve center, or whole length, especially under knees.
7. DO THIS. We will bring the best results for this system for those portions that may be corrected in this system, [4617].
