EC: In the physical body there are conditions (physical) that need attention from the physical or material manner that will bring better functioning in the system. With properties as have been taken in body [for purgation] we find the relaxation too great in portion of the system, until the muscular conditions controlling the orifice of expulsion in the anus itself brings the folds to such conditions as to cause inflammation in this portion of body.
-
We would apply this property, which we find would be a specific for such conditions: [Hemorrhoids] To the oil as would be found from 1/4 pound of butterfat (fresh) add:
Pulverized Tobacco or Snuff…1 dram, with Mentholatum, or oil of same…2 minims, with Tincture Iodine…1 drop or minim.
-
This to be used as salve or lotion for such conditions or abrasions, internal or external. Apply that to the body. We will bring better relief and relations to the whole physical body, with the action of the physical when in the subconscious or subnormal conditions.
-
We are through.
[GD’s note: This was one of the early descriptions of the ointment for hemorrhoids which later was termed TIM.]
