1. EC: Now, we find there are some abnormal physical conditions with this body. These, as we find, are rather hidden, though much of the condition produced in the system is apparent in functioning organs, especially in the kidneys and in the throat.
2. In the eliminations then do we find the greater distress in the body. Now these conditions have their effect, yet the resistance in the system at the present time is very good.
3. These are conditions as we find them in this body. First:
4. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, we find there is the show of the drosses and poisons being taken in the system, which should be eliminated, else we will find in after years rheumatic conditions, as called at present. In the blood supply, this we find entering mostly from the condition existing in the region of the Peyer's glands. There are also in the system poisons as shown in the blood supply from the condition in throat and tonsils. These, however, are secondary, though need local treatments. In the pressure in blood supply very good. In the effects as are shown by assimilation the blood is strong in its ability to affect the system, yet with this constant strain the condition gives drainage to the functioning of the eliminating portions, or emunctories especially. Hence the drain on kidneys, the trouble with the bladder at times in this high state of the excretory system eliminating poisons taken in the blood supply. The condition as produced in intestinal tract in the lower portion comes from these same conditions in a high hepatic circulation. As to white, outnumber the normal. As to red, nearly normal.
5. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, this we find very good. One that would be called by some as one of iron nerve, yet the strain, the constant nagging, gives more to the temperamental and affects the sympathetic more than it does

the central plexuses of the nerve system at present. In the sympathetics these show how the effect of the draining in intestinal tract affects the throat and causes these to become storehouses for poisons as absorbed in system.
6. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF ORGANS THEMSELVES, brain force very good. One that would do well, however, to change the present occupation, for its better for higher things. Keep that which it has in mind. Work to that end.
7. In the physical and sensory organism very good at present. Would be well to ward the system against the nerve system becoming taxed by these poisons in system, for we would find the sensory system would become susceptible and the organs of same would become abnormal in their functioning. First would be for the eyes, then the ear.
8. In the lungs very good.
9. In the throat proper the tonsils show how that poisons form in the functioning of the blood through these without the elimination, the seat, however, having been in the right side, and this is a secondary condition, though needs local treatments.
10. In the digestive tract this is very good at the present time. There are times when the strain on kidneys and bladder affect the appetite more than digestion, though digestion suffers in the end from such a refraction. In the intestinal tract, in the Peyer's gland region, we find there have been strains on the system in some times back when there was taken in the system those properties which produced the overcharging of the lymph forming and lymph producing functions to the digestion, especially in the intestines, and the walls were thinned by strain, by congestion, and then with this congestion which we had in the system that produced the congestion to the kidneys. This then is the seat of the trouble - intestinal tract. This would be reached through that connection in the solar plexus center that supplies this nutriment, and by taking in the system those properties that will give the incentive to the hypogastric center to draw on the system for those healing properties that the system itself supplies to correct the condition. In the center (hypogastric) where we have the hypogastric plexus that connects with the blood flow in hepatics and blood flow in the kidneys direct, this brings with this strain the overacting to the bladder and produces some inflammation in the neck direct. This may form into granular, and may produce some irritation. Correct at its present stage, or else we may have the results, though the system is strong at the present and is given to meet resistance.

11. In the liver, very good for conditions, but with the taxed hepatic, with the kidneys not functioning normal, the excess of excretory comes to liver, so we find the organ itself larger than normal. In the hepatic circulation from this, and in the region of the ascending colon, we find at times there is some soreness - reflex.
12. In the kidneys themselves the hypogastric center is more the effect and the cause than organic conditions. Then to correct this, we would locally remove the strain on system as produced in the tonsils, either by the deep manipulation, as osteopathically given, direct or by the use of the knife. We would then correct in the system in this manner.
13. Take these: This would be the dose as would be taken in the system. Podophyllum....................1/2 grain, Leptandrin.......................1 grain, Yellow Saffron...............1 1/2 grain, Licorice compound................1 grain.
14. That would be in one dose. These would make large capsules, from the Saffron as would be used. Take these, one every other day until at least ten are taken. Then take this: Tincture of Valerian.............2 ounces, Iodide of Potassium..............5 grains, Bromide of Potassium............10 grains, Elixir Calisaya..................4 ounces, Elixir Celerena..................2 ounces, Capsici..........................2 minims. Sufficient simple syrup to make 11 ounces.
15. The dose would be (and shake the properties well together before each dose is taken), teaspoonful twice each day, before breakfast, before retiring; that is, JUST before. Do this, and we will bring the body to the normal condition.
16. After this correction is made in the tonsils and throat, and these properties are taken, it should be corrected in two to three weeks to a normal condition for the body. DO NOT take the properties in the system until just before, if operation is taken, and while treatment is being given, if reduced by osteopathic forces. These should be treated internally, and would be painful to the body but may be removed without operation, or may be removed with operation. The body is in good condition.
