1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now we find the abnormal conditions in this body have to do with the gland condition existing of a specific nature and the effect as this has produced on the nerve centers and the muscles and tissue as controlled by these centers in locomotion and any action of the physical body. This we find a predisposition, though not concurring before the birth of the individual.
2. Now, these are the conditions as we find them at present in this body of [4764] we are speaking of. First, we find the condition may be as well here as in an institution, provided those forces are used to meet the individual's needs as they would be in an institution of this particular treatment, as will be necessary to re-establish the equilibrium through the physical forces of this body. This would not be as easy to give as in an institution. Yet the surroundings are those about the body that hold the forces that would give the healing elements to the body. Would be much better, for the body through the mental has come to rely upon others rather than on its own strength.
3. In the blood supply of the system, the force of this, though impaired in its circulation by congestion of muscular forces and of nerve ends in their distributing of force for the action of muscular conditions, we find is very good. Yet the effect produced upon this forces a hardship upon the circulation and heart itself as an organ, as we shall see, at times.
4. In the nerve forces we have this same condition, yet there are specific conditions of the nervous system and centers to be dealt with direct. These we find are ends or centers in the trunk portion of the body, branches of the solar plexus centers, and affect the body in the effectiveness of the movements of the body, until it gives a hardship to organs that are directly influenced by these nerve centers, this being reflex and through the sympathetic system, though the condition exists specifically within that of the cerebrospinal nerve system, in that the glands have affected the system. We find how these affect the nerve

center or become in conjunction with these directly through that of the Leydig gland, the branch of the perineurial gland and the effort is to the genitation in the system. So, all of these, we see, become directly influenced by its [i.e., the condition] effect, and their effect, upon the cerebrospinal, in that they (the nerves affected through the gland force) come in direct connection with that of the cerebrospinal where it enters the brain, 1st cervical, lower portion of the cerebellum of the brain proper. There are conditions, however, being affected in the trunk portion and their junctures at the solar plexus, secondary cardiac plexus, the lumbar plexus, the brachial plexus, the locomotor plexus of the lower limbs; you see all become engorged, producing the condition in the nerve system of prevention of locomotion through the muscular forces of the extremities and trunk portion thus affected.
5. The inflammation we find within the wall or the perineurial of the nerve sheath, or that portion covering the nerve ganglion itself.
6. In the organs themselves we find as this: The organs are affected, all, rather sympathetically than of organic conditions within the system; and that force propelling those in their functioning is reached rather sympathetically, and through the subnormal or subliminal forces of the body, than through the physical force propelling life-giving forces and the organs themselves.
7. So, to give the relief to this body, we would accord some of those forces used at the present to ease pain or distress to the body. Yet, these would be gradually disminished in portion as given to the body, and apply rather this for this body or system, at present:
8. Give into the system that which will give the enlivening force to glands in the system throughout, and that will give to the lymphatic forces that force to propel, as it were, within the nerve forces so inflamed, the revibration necessary to overcome conditions. This we will find in this:
9. To ten ounces of distilled water add fifteen grains of Chloride of Gold and eight grains of Carbonate of Soda.
10. The dose will be fifteen drops in half a glass of water every four hours. After this has been taken in the system for seven days, that is, of twenty-four hours each, begin with the treatment of the violet ray - rather that of heat than direct ray, applied to the body. The centers receiving this should be at the first cervical. Direct ray of very high power, light or X-ray forces; not sufficient closeness that burns would occur, but at least twenty inches from the body.
4764-1 Page 3
First cervical, first dorsal, 10th dorsal, 4th lumbar, each center receiving the light or vibration from these forces for two minutes. This would be done only every second day. The day intervening, or the opposite days from the light treatment, the body should receive that gentle massage of neuropathic forces and of the vibrations as received from the physical body of one so treating the body.
11. Do that. We will find we will bring the relief desired for and by the body [4764] ..., Ohio.
