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 diagnose the case thoroughly, giving the cause of the existing conditions, also the treatment for the cure and relief of this body.
2. EC: Now, we find there are many abnormal conditions for this body, and those existent, or many of same, are of long standing. So, with persistence and consistence may the beneficial conditions be used for the betterment of those existent conditions.
3. Now, these are conditions as we find them in this body. First:
4. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this low in its rebuilding properties, while the general condition of same changes much according to the abilities of the body to eliminate through the regular channels the drosses of the system. Hence the change in the blood stream proper.
5. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, in this we find much of the trouble of the body, for in times back there has been produced in the system those impingements, by conditions as existed at the time, that has brought to the body much of the detrimental conditions, through the effect these impingements have produced on the system, especially in functioning of some of the organs; those through that reflex of the mesenteric system, especially in the plexus of the hypogastric and pneumogastric centers. Hence the disturbance lies in the intestinal tract, in the organs of the pelvis, where specific conditions were created, in the digestive system, and reflexly to heart's action, and to the upper portion of the body, so that the body became in part neurotic in the effects created in system. Then organs became involved, through this constant lack of those proper nutriments, and the metabolism of the system being thrown out of balance, the conditions, as we see as have been created, were brought about in the system.
6. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS THEMSELVES, many of the organs of the sensory system are as exceptional in their

functioning, for the age and for the conditions of the body.
7. Lungs very good.
8. Digestive system (stomach proper), shows effects of the condition as has been existent, as does the liver, in the manner and way it functions.
9. The disturbances in the organs of the pelvis are of the nature as to produce inflammation, inability of the action of the extremities of the body in their regular or normal manner. Hence the condition as is created in all the centers.
10. Then, to bring about the better conditions for the body, we would use, in conjunction one with the other, three different modes of treating the system.
11. Prepare as this: To one gallon of rain water, add: Sarsaparilla Root.....4 ounces, Wild Cherry Bark......2 ounces, Yellow Dock Root......2 ounces, Elder Flower..........4 ounces, Black Snake Root......2 ounces, Mandrake Root........15 grains, Buchu Leaves.........20 grains. Reduce by simmering (not boiling) to one quart. Strain while warm and add 4 ounces of pure grain alcohol, with 3 drams of Balsam of Tolu cut in it. Then add 10 minims Oil of Peppermint.
12. The dose would be teaspoonful four times each day, before each meal and before the resting at night. See? The diet at the time that this is being taken, or during this time, should be little of meats, though the juices and broths of meats may be taken freely, for the strength and vitality, as a mild stimulant as of wine, or of weakened spirits frumenti. Anything that gives strength or tone to the system, that will create a different effect of the alcohols created in the system.
13. During this same time, there should be at least twenty-six (26) deep manipulations, osteopathically given, see? consistently; that is, every second or third day, but these given in such a manner as first to loosen up those portions of the lumbar region, where the trouble first begun; not all of a sudden, but first relaxing the system, then gradually bringing into place all of these conditions.
14. To create the correct metabolism of the system, and to bring to the blood that rebuilding property as is necessary, and to bring the eliminations better for the system, use the Radium Applicator across the abdomen in evening, and across

the solar plexus or back during day. Do that, in a consistent, in a persistent manner, and in from six to fifteen weeks we will find great improvement in this body.
15. We are through.
