1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time. You will diagnose the case thoroughly, giving the cause of the existing conditions, also the treatment for the cure and relief of this body.

2. EC: Now, while there are those abnormal conditions with the body that cause distress, and have been producing, little by little more of this condition, this may be corrected, were it taken in time and those conditions brought about in the physical functioning of the body that would aright conditions. These, by the nature of the conditions, are a series of complications that have been hindered by various conditions as have arisen in the system, and these have brought about the different effects as are produced. First, as we see, there was that condition in times back produced by cold and congestion, from improper exercise during the menstrual periods, that brought to the system, through the retraction as produced by same, of a tendency towards that of the congestion in tissue, produces that of the catarrhal condition. In many portions of the system has this become exhibited - not to that extent that it has hindered any functioning of the organs so attacked. First we saw the distress as is seen with the organs of the pelvis, again we see these with the organs that have to do with the eliminations, again we see this distress as had to do with the glands of the throat, the nasal cavity, and the stomach in its turn has had the various changes, with the various conditions as have been brought about by changes as have existed in various conditions in the body - this has shifted, as it were, from one condition to another. In its attack on the sensory organism, we find the tonsils, then the Eustachian Tubes, have become involved in the condition, and with the thickening of the walls the auditory nerves became involved. Hence this condition as exists in the hearing, the condition as has existed as towards the lungs - this following “flu” and cold, see? All of these are OUTCOMES of this one condition existing in the system, and the various effects as have been produced in the body; at one time attacking the blood supply, when the digestive system was most involved. Another time attacking the lungs direct proper; another time we find in various portions of the system, as has been seen.

3. Now, to meet the needs of these conditions, these must be met in their regular order, as it were, for the eliminations must be kept proper first, see? and then those corrections made that will relieve the strain on the various portions of the system as are attacked in their turn. Hence it will be a consistent and a persistent treatment for the body to function normal without those conditions arising in the system wherein there may be a specific condition, involving some specific functioning of an organ in the system. Then first we would prepare as this for the body:

4. To 1 gallon of rain water we would add:

Sarsaparilla Root…2 ounces, Wild Cherry Bark…2 ounces, Black Root…2 ounces, Yellow Dock Root…2 ounces, Elder Flower…4 ounces.

5. Reduce this by simmering (not boiling) to 1 quart. Strain. Set this aside, see? Then we would take 2 quarts of rain water. Add 2 ounces of green ragweed, 2 ounce of Sassafras Root Bark, with 20 grains Mandrake Root and 15 grains Buchu Leaves. Reduce this to half the quantity, see? Strain this. To this last, add 4 ounces of sugar, first dissolved in 2 ounces of hot water. Put the two solutions together. Then add 4 ounces pure grain alcohol, with 2 drams Balsam of Tulu cut in it. When this is shaken together, the dose is to be teaspoonful 4 times each day.

6. Do not eat meats. Very little of any meats. Fish or fowl may be taken in moderation. The greater portion of the diet should be vegetables and fruit and nuts. Whole wheat bread - not white bread.

7. After the whole quantity of medicine is taken, then have those adjustments made, as will be found necessary, to clear the Eustachian Tubes, and those conditions as will be found to exist in the lumbar and in the cervical regions - with alignment, of course, throughout the whole cerebro-spinal system. It will be necessary, as we see now, for at least 13 such adjustments. Do that.

8. We are through.
