IcE IN THE SToMAcH.-The use OF
ice as luxury. in the form OF ice cream
or OF iced water, is becoming more and
more prevalent IN this country. Used
in these ways, hey are generally taken,
especially by the young, recklessly,
without thought Of any serious, pos
sibly fatal, results that may follow.
An average stomach has a great deal
to do TO digest three full meals day I;
especially when, as is frequently the
case, it IS disturbed and rritated by food
that is indigesfibe because OF quality or
its quantity. Let be rememberedthai
therei is noihngin the body-blood, mus
Gle, membrane, bone, tendon, nerve,
brain or secretions--wh which has not come
ofthe contents OF the stomach. Neither
is there a thought, feeling, an emo
ton, volition or and act which has not
derived the material force back of il
from the stomach.
Such an organ must, therefore, be
highly organized. II has countless
arteries, veins, nerves and glands. II
is lined with a delicate mucous mem
brane, as much so as the air tubes.
II IS studded all over with glands
which elaborate and pour lntoitthat Won
derful fluid, the gastric juice. Its coats
consist OF different thin layers
Of muscles arranged crosswise, and
these are constantly At work, giving II
that peculiar rolling motion by whichI
the food is thoroughly mixed with the
saliva. Every organ aRd muscle when.
in action must have special supply Of
blood. This is especially true Of the
stomach.
Food, therefore, fails TO digest If the
blood is withdrawn from the stomach,
as, for instance, to the brain by study OF
close thought, or by anxiety immediate
ly after eating.
Now, it is the nature Of cold TO con-
tract all blood vessels and drive back
the blood and to paralyze, more or less,
all nerves. OF course the flow Of gas
trio juice is checked and digestion is
arrested. and the proper motion OF the
stomach interlered with, by an iee-eold
fluid introduced into it.
Further, when the reaction sets in,
the blood vessels become over dlstend-
ed, producing often a dangerous con-
gestion, and an increased thirst, With
longing Tor more ice water, thus in
duclng vicious circle"
From what we have said any reader
can see that iced water, or ice cream
should not be taken into The stomach al
the same time with food. Serious con
sequences will often follow disregard
OF ibis physical law Youths Campan-
ion.
