1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now, we find there are are abnormal conditions with this body. To give that as will show how the administrations of physical forces would assist in bringing about nearer normal conditions, something of the history of the condition should be understood.
2. While conditions then are being given, take into consideration that, that explanation may refer to existent conditions and conditions producing or causing the existent condition in various stages of reaching the present disturbance in the system.
3. These, then, are conditions as we find them with this body, Mrs. [4746]. First:
4. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this we find below normal in quantity and quality. Often have there been calls on the system to produce through its blood stream sufficient of various portions or elements to CREATE quick reaction, especially as to coagulation - and this, necessarily, has reduced the vitality of the body.
5. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, this rather the beginning or the seat of the trouble, yet the existent condition has outgrown that of a purely nervous trouble; yet the nerves of the cerebro- spinal, the sympathetic, and of the sensory system, are involved. Not only through the lack of efficiency in the blood supply and the replenishing and rebuilding as is necessary through the tissue and the lymphatic circulation, but as to specific CONDITIONS and PRESSURES as have hindered, or caused - in other cases - UNDUE activity in other portions of system. Hence this must be duly considered when either giving the causes or of applying that which may prove beneficial to the physical forces OF the body.
6. IN THE ORGANS OF THE BODY, these are necessarily under stress and strain where there has been the continued exaggeration, or lack or exercise from ganglions of the nerve system, causing undue activity or lack of incentive in

various functioning organs - or, combining them all SYMPATHETICALLY, one becomes involved in sympathy with another. Such as is seen through the pulmonary system. Not a lung condition, no - but sympathetic, and conditions from such an impoverished blood supply, lack of ability to take on proper oxygen, or to cleanse the system, and an improper elimination long established in system - attempting to throw off through some of the CHANNELS of elimination, sympathetically - become involved in the condition. The seat, the cause of the trouble, being that pressure as left - or as coming ABOUT from conditions left in the pelvic system, or pelvic organs, at or after childbirth, and this continued drain on system - with the accumulation of poisons from system, wherein and when the body suffered form constipation, and its effect has brought about lesions or adhesions (and both) throughout the system to such an extent as at times the body feels as a burden to self and to others.
7. To remove, or to bring about the more normal conditions for the body, or to bring about nearer perfectly normal, two ways - yea three - may lie open for the condition to be corrected.
8. That through operative, which would be VERY uncertain, with such an impoverished condition of blood, lack of ability to create coagulation, and the lack of the system's being able to clarify that necessary life-giving stream through conditions existent in the body; though the body MIGHT be BUILDED to that condition where this POSSIBLY might be made a success.
9. Or the body may, by a continued - or a CONSISTENT and a PERSISTENT effort on the part of self as respecting having the conditions brought to a more normal coordination throughout, GRADUALLY relieve these pressures and resuscitation may be brought to the organs and the functioning of same through this persistent treatment to meet the changes as they would occur in the physical functioning of the system.
10. Then, there may be that of an entire change of environment and of altitudes, so that change would GRADUALLY be brought about. This would require even the greater length of time, and would of necessity mean more physical exercise, more activity on part of the body ITSELF, and require a greater amount of time.
11. Then, as WE would give, the BETTER condition is presented through that of (for the TIME, at least) a change of scene and environment, and under the supervision of one who may give - through manipulation osteopathically,

medicinal properties internally, as will set up a rejuvenation through the system, applying WITH same not only the properties as would be found in Radium Appliance occasionally, but of the ultra Violet Ray to bring resuscitation not only to the tissue, but to the very CELLS in their coordination throughout the system! giving then such as will be necessary to bring about the coordination of eliminations in the alimentary canal, through the functioning of the liver and hepatic circulation, and of the pulmonaries or lungs themselves - so respiration is set up normally, (Long time since the body ever remembers perspiring normally - except hands and feet from nervous condition!) but setting up normal respiration through the system; not so much by the internal medicine, but as the ACTION of internal forces WITH manipulations that would gradually break up those of the lesions and adhesions as have begun to give trouble to the body, especially throughout the lower portion of colon, and the transverse colon, and naturally - SYMPATHETICALLY, from the pressure on pelvis to the organs of same, as reflexly shown also on rest of the body. Then do that, Mrs. [4746]. We are through for the present.
