1. MHB: 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. You will also give this body mental information that will help the body develop to its highest point in this earth plane.

2. EC: Now, we find the physical conditions in this body very good in many respects. There are some conditions in the body that would be well for body to be warned against. These may become abnormal to the extent as to give distress to the physical forces in this body.

3. Now, these are conditions as we find them in this body, [4855] we are speaking of, present in this room: First,

4. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this we find very good in many ways. There are, however, conditions that exist in the nerve system, as reference to the blood supply to the functioning of the system, that the body needs be warned against. In the elements of the blood does this condition at present show, for there is that element entering in the make-up of the blood, especially through a portion in the hemoglobin of same, that forces the lymph, in its connection in the circulation, to overtax the blood supply. Hence the condition as exists in the heart's functioning towards the blood circulation. Not an organic condition of heart, or of blood supply, at present. May become so, without the correction of same in the system.

5. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, in the cerebrospinal system, this we find very good. There has been in times back a condition in the 12th dorsal and 1st lumbar, where lesion has formed, from a strain to the body. In that time (6 1/2 years ago from next Wednesday) we find the strain was to the lower portion of body, disturbing the mesenteric system at the time. Hence the condition at time with the intestinal

4855-1 Page 2

system. This condition, we find, produced in the sympathetic and refractory centers, about the plexus that joins with the lower end of solar plexus, producing the disturbance to the nerve system, bringing the reflection to the portion of system in pneumogastric and hypogastric plexus, in the circulation through same to heart, or through the circulation from and to the heart's action, giving this condition in nerve system that body should be warned most of.

6. In the sympathetic of the upper portion of body, these we find very good, save at times, through this condition, there is not perfect co-relation between sympathetic and cerebrospinal reaction. Hence the inclination to become under the impression, or the action, or nothing seems to be just right.

7. In the sensory system, we find the body very good. This, we find, in the sensory organism, in a disturbance, the natural result of strain on sympathetic nerve system.

8. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF ORGANS, in brain forces very good. Above the normal.

9. In throat, bronchials, lungs, very good. The functioning of the blood supply through carotid artery, from the reflection in sympathetic, and its connection with the secondary cardiac plexus, in 4th dorsal, gives the depression, or the assistance, to the body in at times desiring to gain a deep breath. Reflex. No organic condition. Purely nerve reaction.

10. Heart's action subnormal, yet produced by the condition in the nerve reaction, and with this exaggeration, might become a condition to be reckoned with.

11. Digestive organs very good, save in nerve reaction. Rather a nerve digestion than indigestion, occasionally. Spleen responds to the blood reaction. Pancreas, duodenum, liver, shows inclination in liver of the reflex in excretory functioning. Upper portion of digestion in intestines very good. Hepatic circulation, reflexly, becomes spasmodic in its reaction; that is, at times there are the inclinations for body to have hot and cold flushes, when resting, or when overtaxed, either mentally or physically; that is produced by the system unable to gain equilibrium through nerve reaction and refraction.

12. The system general, or constitutional, very good.

13. The functioning of the kidneys show the reaction in hypogastric and in the nerve system.

14. Then, to give the body that necessary for the perfect co-ordination throughout the system, and to bring the equalization in circulation, and in the nerve system, we

4855-1 Page 3

would correct, through deep manipulation, chiropractically or osteopathically, those lesions in the 12th dorsal and 1st lumbar, and that reaction in the upper dorsal, giving those vibrations to the mesenteric system that will produce equalization in blood and nerve supply through the hypogastric and pneumogastric systems. Also using as an equalizer in blood and nerve circulation, when retiring, or when tired, these properties, only using such when body is weary, either physical or mental:

15. To one gallon of rain water, or distilled water, add: Copper Sulphate.........1 pound, Sulphuric Acid C.P......1 ounce, Common Zinc.............6 drams.

16. This solution should be placed in glass container. In this solution we would place two bars of carbon steel, one-quarter inch thick, four inches long, by one-half inch wide. To these would be attached small insulated copper wire, and small plate, to each end of wire, that may attach one to wrist, other to ankle, on opposite sides of body. Keep this on body for thirty minutes to sixty minutes. We will find this will give rest and equalize the circulation in nerve and in blood supply, rejuvenating and giving the best resistance to system.

17. As to the mental forces, and that wherein the body may develop to the highest points in the earth plane, study well to show self approved unto Him, who gives the eternal forces; not ashamed, right dividing words of truth, presenting self unspotted from the world.
