2. Now, these are conditions as we find them in this body, [5687], we are speaking of: The blood supply in the system is deficient both in quantity and quality, especially, in the rebuilding cellular force or the red blood cellular force of the circulation, the overstrain both from conditions in the body from nerve and from organic conditions as is produced.

When attempting to rest the body becomes irritant, see. To four ounces of grain alcohol, we would add twenty drops of Eucalyptol, ten drops of Benzosol and ten drops of Canadian
