1. EC: Yes, we have those impressions and those conditions as surround the body physical, [5543].
2. Now, in the physical conditions of the body, we find there are disorders and disturbances. While these are of the nature that give distress at times mentally, and at times are disturbing as for the conditions - unless they should reach different proportions in the physical forces, they would not be what the body would die with!
3. In the functioning of organs we find disturbances, and these create effects, or PRODUCE effects in the physical functioning of the body. These conditions being of specific nature, do not, however, ALWAYS react the same way and manner in their effect UPON the body. The conditions, then, as we find them with the physical body, are as THESE - [5543] we are speaking of:
4. Through the BLOOD SUPPLY we find LITTLE disturbances, save at times a variation in the pulsation or heart's action. This dependent much upon the nervous system, as we shall see.
5. In the NERVE FORCES of the body, much disturbance is seen here from specific conditions as exist in and with the pelvic organs, and of the genitory system. These pressures in the sacral and lumbar produce conditions that react differently in the system. The gradual strain produces that very disturbance that brings languidness, and the feeling of tiredness, the headaches as come to the top of the head - THESE are but reflexes of conditions as exist, and are from the pressures as exist in the lumbar and sacral. At times these conditions change the effect of the digestive system, through WORRY - or aggravation as much as anything else - and THEN we find that there is an acidity, as a RESULT of same, and becomes necessary that the alimentary canal be CLEANSED. This, NATURALLY, gives disturbances to the hepatic circulation, changing the conditions of reaction between the liver and the kidneys.

6. In the functioning of the ORGANS themselves, these are very good in most conditions - save as the reflex action under disturbances or pressures, and while not occurring during the period of menstruation, these OFTEN have their effect upon the whole system, PRODUCING a strain or an irritation to both the cerebrospinal and sympathetic system, and produce disturbances.
7. In the organs of the pelvis, then, we find the greater distress. The position of the system, or of the organs of genitation, and the pressure as is produced there. These produce CONSTITUTIONAL effects, as WELL as disturbances in the general system. The pressures as apparent are in the 2nd 4th lumbar, and through the lower portion of the sacral. These the centers from which the radial forces of nerve SUPPLY, and as WELL as SYMPATHETICALLY, throughout ALL of those from the LOWER portion of the solar plexus.
8. In meeting the needs of the conditions, we would find that rest and quiet would be well, especially during the period that local applications were made for the correction of the POSITION of the organs OF pelvis, and DURING the same period would be well were THIS compound given as the vibratory forces as to CHANGE the constitutional, or the effect of the blood supply, the awakening of the functioning organs as related to the vibrations IN the system, and ESPECIALLY as related to the genitive system. We would compound, then, as this:
9. First we would make as a carrier, this: To 1 ounce of Wild Cherry Bark add 8 ounces distilled water. Reduce by slow boiling to 2 ounces. Allow to drain, or strain. Then add to same 2 ounces simple syrup. Then take THESE and reduce in the same way and manner, PREFERABLY taking the GREEN Mandrake Root - for it BEING at the season when it will be most active WITH the physical forces of the body. Take 1/2 ounce green Mandrake Root to 8 ounces of distilled water and 1/2 ounce of the Wild Ginseng. Reduce this by slow simmering to 1/2 the quantity. Then add the 2 together, adding 2 ounces of alcohol as the preservative, with 1/2 dram Balsam of Tolu cut IN same. The dose would be half a teaspoonful twice each day.
10. Be mindful of the diet during the period of rest, that no MEATS - especially of hog meats - are taken, and NO fat meats. Fish, fowl, and especially WILD game may be taken in moderation. Let most of the vegetables be those that grow ABOVE the ground.
11. The manipulations should be such as to produce the proper coordination OF the properties taken WITH the corrections. We will find that the conditions will be

removed, and conception may take place nominally, will these be carried out. THIS a greater part of the repression to the system. Ready for questions.
12. (Q) Is there any sinus infection? (A) This MOSTLY nerve reflection, though - to be sure - this REMAINING, may become of an infectious, and DOES become infectious reaction.
13. (Q) Would it be advisable to give glandular extract? (A) After these are tried FIRST, unless the corrections are then in better condition - glandular extract would be well; but try THESE and you will find GLANDS will work!
14. (Q) How much rest, and when? (A) Just so the body has the proper time to RECUPERATE and to BUILD. The body should rest more than the activities should be. Not as sick abed, but rather as rest from too many activities.
15. (Q) Is there brachial neuritis present? (A) This also more from the reflex condition of the nerve system, STOPPING the eliminations, see? The activities of the medicinal properties as are given are for the correction of ELIMINATIONS in the system; for THESE are those disturbances in all portions OF the system.
16. (Q) Would colonic treatments be advisable? (A) Would not be injurious, but not especially beneficial, unless there is the continued disregard to the diet, with the properties as has been outlined. Then it would be NECESSARY.
17. That is all the questions.
18. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " Ass'n office " " Cayce Hospital
