1. EC: Yes, we have the body here - this we have had before. There are many changes in the physical reactions of the body at present from that as we have had before. The greater portion of these are for the benefit of the individual. In meeting the needs of the condition of this body at the present time, those conditions that have to do with the condition of the stomach, intestines, and the functioning of assimilation and elimination must be considered. Also there must be considered those conditions as have existed from times back that have been produced by drosses remaining in the system and the effects that this has produced upon tissue in the functioning, not only of organs but of the system itself. These, then, must all be considered. First we would consider this (though this has been given, but changed here somewhat) for the correction and assisting of normal reaction from the respiratory system, using then at least once or twice each day the inhalant prepared as this:
2. To four (4) ounces of grain alcohol, add: Eucalyptol..............................20 minims, Creosote, Rectified......................3 minims, Balsam of Fir............................5 minims, Benzoin, Tincture of.....................5 minims, Rectified Oil of Turp....................5 minims, Tolu in Solution........................30 minims. Keep this in container at least twice the size of the quantity. Shake together only when to be used. Inhale both through nostril and into the throat and lungs. This is as an antiseptic and to correct, THROUGH this antiseptic condition, that tendency of reinfection through these sources and channels.
3. Prepare THIS as an active force for the stomach and the digestive system. First we would prepare as this:

4. Take one-half (1/2) gallon distilled or rain water. To this add eight (8) ounces wild cherry bark. Reduce this by simmering (not boiling) to one-half (1/2) the quantity. Then add four (4) ounces of sugar, and reduce then again one-third (1/3), or to one pint and one-half pint. Keep the solutions together, see? Then add: Sarsaparilla Compound..................1/2 ounce, Tincture Yellow Dock Root, or Essence of............1/4 ounce, Iodide of Potassium 10% solution.......1/4 ounce, Elixir Celerena, or Essence Celery.....1/2 ounce, Tincture of Capsici......................3 minims. Shake the solution together before the dose is taken, which would be teaspoonful half an hour before each meal and upon retiring.
5. Massage thoroughly into the cerebrospinal system equal parts of olive oil and tincture of myrrh. These massages should be given at least every second or third day. Use at least a tablespoonful at each time. Heat the oil, then add the tincture of myrrh - see?
6. Keep the intestinal tract open. Do not use CATHARTICS for this. Enemas may be taken when necessary.
7. In the diet, beware of meats; for these add to the distresses of the system.
8. Do not overtax self mentally or physically. Keep in the open as much as possible. Do that. Ready for questions.
9. (Q) Does heat or excitement affect the body? If so, how? (A) Nervous tension, or nervous condition excites especially the digestive system. Hence keep the body as little from overtaxation mentally or physically as possible.
10. (Q) Does the body have any dissolute habits? (A) Answer that within self. You will see from those things we have given to be applied here, there are some conditions that should be left undone. Apply these in the manner as has been given, and we will find bettered conditions coming for this body.
11. We are through for the present.
