The Ottawa free trader. [volume] (Ottawa, Ill.) 1843-1916, 1880-06-05

There is no more doubt that drinking ice
water arrests digestion than there is that a re
frigerator would arrest perspiration. 1t drives
from the stomach its natural heart, sdspends
the flow of gastric JUICE and shocks and weak
ems the delicate organs with which it comes in
contact. An able writer on human diseases
says llabitual Ice water drinkers are usually
very flabby about the region of the stomach.
They complain that food lies heavy on that
patient organ. They taste their dinner for hours
after il Is botcd. Their cultivate the use OF
stimulants to aid Digestion If they are intelI-
gent, they read upon food and what the ply
,iologist has tn say about it-how long it takes
cabbage and pork and beef and potatoes, and
other meats and esculents to 90 through the
process of assimilation. They roar at new
bread, hot cakes and fried meat imagining
these to have been the cause of their maladles
But the ice water goes down all the same and
finally friends are called in to take a farewell
look at one whom mysterious Providence has
called to a cline where, as far as known, ice
water is not used. The number Of immortal
beings who go hence, to return no more, on &C
count of an injudicious use of ice-water, can
hardly be estimated.

THE lose SLUG.

This IS a terrible pest. 1t will attack a rose
bush, and multiply so rapidly as to totally de
strOy the foliage in a few hours. They eat the
surface of the leaf, leaving the veins and skcl-
eton untouched, giving the bush the appear
ance of being blasted or burned. The effects
of their ravages can be seen at a considerable
distance, and when seen not a moment of time
should be lost. Make a pallful Of strong suds
of soft soap, add handful OF salt and thor
oughy sprinkle the bushes. The bushes
should be washed with clear water the next
day, unless a shower Of rain kindly does it for
you. Fine sifted ashes or airslaked lime dust
ed on the bushes after wetting them is very
good. White helehore prepared As for cur
rant-worms is also an effective remedy

THE CABBAGE FLEA.

This little pest requires considerable atten-
ton. 1t will often eat off cabbage, turnp and
radlsh plants as soon as they appear, and an
inexperienced gardener would think the seed
was bad, and had never grown. Fine stted
ashes scattered over the plants when wet will
check its operations, and often save the crop
The plants are generally safe after they start
the second leaf, and the best plan is to SOW the
seed in rich soil, and get them out of its way
