1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now, we find there are many abnormal conditions in the functioning of the organs of this body. We find there are specific reasons for these conditions that have been brought about in this body. Now, these are the conditions as we find them, in this body, at present. The conditions in the body are produced by some conditions that do not altogether exist in their original state of being, now. Now, this is the body, [4910], we are speaking of, present in this room.
2. The blood, we find, is deficient in its rebuilding properties; that is, sufficient of nutriment to build up and to give the correct vitality to the system is lacking. The elemental force through the blood itself is lacking, in that much of the force is taken from the circulation to overcome conditions produced in the system, as we will see, in the functioning of the organs themselves.
3. We find the nerve forces in the body are very good, when the condition of the body is taken into consideration. The reaction, often, to many centers of the nervous system produces the condition as the body would feel impossible for it to go further, with resistance necessary to overcome the taxation to the body. The coordination between the nervous systems is very good.
4. The action of the spirit and soul forces of the body are good, with this body, for the control of the mental over the system, is exercised when the body can gain control of itself, as it were.
5. The functioning of the organs of the sensory system come under the influences of the weakened condition, hence there is some defect at times to many of the organs of the sensory system.
6. In the functioning of the organs of the system, we find: The lungs show the expression of depleted blood supply, without organic condition.
7. The heart action is very good, though the body has, at times, both subnormal and abnormal pulsations - not as much at the present condition of the system as it experienced at times back.

8. Through the digestive tract, we find, where there was considered much of the trouble in the system, and the functioning of the whole hepatic circulation has been involved in the condition, while the real seat of the trouble is from the tension from the absorption, assimilation and elimination and from the intestinal tract, for there has been within the intestinal tracts themselves those of a parasite nature, that involves the system throughout.
9. The effect of the quick coagulation to the system weakened the condition in the body, but assisted the system in that it forced the nerve and blood supply to recreate, as it were, through corpuscle creation those elements necessary to combat the condition in the body.
10. The action of the liver and the kidneys, at the present time, are better than they have been, yet we find, they are not abnormal in their functioning, as yet. The kidneys are overtaxed, at times, with improper secretions going through this portion of the system, hence the reflexes to the pelvic organs, giving the distress sign to all of the plexuses to this part of the body, and making the continual drain over the system.
11. To give the proper balance to this body, so as to overcome these conditions, to create within the peyerenial [perineurial? Peyer's glands?] gland forces sufficient of the secretions to overcome the conditions through this portion of the body, and to give the correct incentives to the blood supplying forces, we would take this into the system:
12. To one gallon of rain water, we would add: Sarsaparilla Root...............4 ounces, Yellow Dock Root................2 ounces, Burdock Root....................2 ounces, Black Snake Root................2 ounces, Yellow Root (or Gold Seal)......2 ounces. Reduce by simmering, not boiling, to one quart. Strain. While warm, add: 6 ounces of grain alcohol, with 2 drams Balsam of Tolu.
13. The dose would be teaspoonful three times each day - one-half hour before meals.
14. The body does not take very much food. Let the diet, as this is taken, be at least one meal of whole wheat gruel, that is, with nothing taken out of the wheat, that is rolled. Let the body keep the mind active - not too much activity to the physical forces, but not in a drone way.
4910-1 Page 3
Care for the physical, but with sufficient to keep all of the faculties of the physical and mental forces alert, and do not allow foods to remain in the system. Do not allow heavy constipation to this body, preferably to be removed by high enema. Do that for this body, [4910], present in this room.
15. (Q) Has he now any serious stomach trouble? (A) More of an intestinal trouble, than of the stomach. The reflexes back from the glands, as we have given, through the alimentary canal, are only reflexes, see. Follow as we have given, if we would bring the equilibrium correctly to this body.
16. (Q) Has his condition been improving for the past two months? (A) We have just given that. The trouble is with the absorption. Conditions have changed.
17. (Q) Was there ever any tumor or other growth in the stomach? (A) Do not find indications here. Lacerations in the pyloric end of the stomach. These were produced by the conditions as given, the condition existing in the intestinal tract - a parasite condition. These medicinal properties are to overcome that same condition, and to give the balance to both blood, and toning of general conditions of the system, see. Do as we have given. We are through.
