1. EC: Now, as to the conditions we find in this body, we find that the condition as is shown is the lower extremities that of an aggravated and of the condition that is so set in system that the condition itself reproduces itself in the form of bacilli as is shown in the system. Not that of the particular condition as would be termed cancerous condition, yet in this malignant form and way we find this shows something of that nature, without the wasting condition as is usually produced in this form of condition. This is not the sarcoma germ. Rather that which would be produced from a dew poison, or Night Shade poison, or from as we find that which produced this in the system is from taking Mercury and Night Shade in the system at the same time, and it produces a poison in the extremities and turned aside, as it were, the elimination in the capillary circulation, and the lymphatic glands becoming involved and poisoned. All this combined produces this condition. This in the malignant state is the accentuated, aggravated, condition in both the blood supply, in the capillaries of the extremities and in the lymphatic circulation. Hence the pus and the inflammation.

2. Now, we find this condition may be assisted, and if properly handled and taken may be eliminated entirely in and from the system. This will of necessity include all form of perfect elimination being set in the system, especially that in the emunctory circulation in liver and in kidneys, without producing in the organs themselves the incentive to accentuate the condition in the functioning organs.

3. We would first make this lotion and apply directly to the outer edges, first of the abrasions.

4. To two ounces of butterfat add the same quantity of Plantain, with the leaves, the root and the stem or blossom, reduced until nearly jellied; take six to eight ounces and reduce until almost jelled. This with the oil of butterfat and apply directly to these abrasions, changing this at times with the milk from milkweed, as will be found about the farms of this district. This we find will heal these

places, these abrasions; that is, we will use the Plantain and butterfat three days, one day use the milk from the milkweed; that is, the ground creeping weed, and the vibration is opposite to that of the Night Shade.

5. Taking in the system properties as we will find in this:

To one gallon of rain water, add:

Sarsaparilla.................4 ounces, Wild Cherry Bark.............2 ounces, Calisaya Bark................2 ounces, Mandrake Root...............30 grains, Buchu Leaves................20 grains, Elder Flower.................2 ounces, Poke-Root...................10 grains.

Reduce by simmering (not boiling) to one quart. Strain while warm and add four ounces of grain alcohol, with two drams of Balsam of Tolu cut in it. Also, after this has been used for some time (medicinal properties and the lotion, you see), use the radium applicator as we will find from the Radium Appliance Company of Los Angeles.

6. Do that. This will bring better conditions to the body. We will find that these will heal and break again, yet we should keep them cleansed with an alkaline antiseptic. Do not use acid antiseptic in cleansing the abrasions on the body. This persistently, consistently, added to the system, and keeping the eliminations with all of the vegetable matter as grows above the ground. None below. No meats of any kind, save fish or fowl.

7. Do this. We will bring the body to the better condition and eventually eliminate these poisons entirely from the system, [5521].
