1. EC: Now, this body we find very good. There are at the present time those conditions in the elimination through the digestive tract that cause distress to the pneumogastric center, and producing through this condition the pains or distress to the head, it coming more to the lower and right side of the back portion, produced from this condition existing in the digestive tract.

2. Now, these are conditions as we find in this body, [5454] we are speaking of. First:

3. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this we find very good, save at the present time, with the lack of the functioning of the emunctories in the liver proper, and of the pancreas, producing in the duodenum that of the taxing to the system, causing nausea, produced in the blood supply, that of the temperature above the normal, the system attempting to push through the eliminating forces in the body. This we see only a temporary condition. This may be corrected in the assisting of the system to equalize the circulation and elimination in the proper manner.

4. Nerve system very good. Strain on the pneumogastric at the present time, produced by pressure in hepatic circulation, and in the hypogastric center especially, which brings the direct connection, or pressure on the center that leads to the base or through the pineal nerve.

5. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF ORGANS, these are very good, save the functioning at present in the lower portion of stomach and liver proper.

6. To correct this condition at the present, we would take in the system broken doses of properties as found in Castoria, and with this the mild tea as from Yellow Saffron, and with this Glyco-Thymoline, ten drops to half glass of water would be taken three times each day. The tea from Saffron would be twice each day. The broken doses of Castoria would be ten drops every six hours, until the system is thoroughly cleansed. Then keep other properties for four to five days in system.

7. To allay the feverish condition in the body, this we will

see will give the relief and bring the proper functioning of organs.

8. Let the diet then be of those properties that are not of cold or of too hot, but those that give gentle stimulation to the system, especially to the digestion. That is, those properties easily digested. Not fruits, save of orange juice may be [given] in small quantities.

9. Do this.

10. We will bring the condition [to] normal for this body.
