Soldier Victim of Rare Affliction

His remarkable recovery and the
fact that he retains his reason are
the most remarkable features Of this
case. While he is alive, in good
health and able to walk around the
streets and converse with his friends
and acquaintance, Dunn is handl
capped by the loss of all sense oil
smell or taste and has lost the sight
of his right eye Despite these al
flictions he bears his lot with forti
tude. He cannot enjoy meal, for nc
matter what choice viands he may or
der, he cannot relish them any more
than he would bareback and salt pork
The loss of the sense of taste he
looks upon as his worst affection.
Tommy Dunn, as he Is known among
his friends, is a ward of the govern
ment, though not of his own choosing
for he has relatives and influential
friends who take care of him and look
after his comfort at all times. His
impaired eyesight has proved an OBJ
stacle toward his securing employ
ment. and idleness is something he
breads because of his Affections. His
only amusement Is to join several con
genial companions and tell stories OF
past experiences, or to take street cal
rides or journeys through the country
in automobiles. He cannot go to the
theater, being handicapped by partial
blindness and fearful lest the glare OF
the lights shall impair the sight OF
his remaining eye.
AS a ward Of the government Dunn
must report at Washington or some
ether military headquarters at certain
periods and to undergo the periodical
examination required by the surgeon
generals office.

Thomas P. Dunn, a native of Mon
tana, who, as a member of the First
Montana volunteers in the Spanish
American war, was shot through the
head at Caloocan in the Philippines
more than twelve years ago and is
alive to tell of 1t today.
When Dunn fell wounded on the
battlefield of Caloocan he was car
ried to the ward where the fatally
injured were placed and no one paid
any attention to him for two days, as
there were too many other wounded
whom the physicians and surgeons in
charge believed had better chances
for recovery. At the end Of two days,
during which the Montana boy lay
practically without attention, the sur
geon in charge remarked upon his
vitality and decided to try to save his
life.
A Mauser bullet had entered the
left side of his head just above the
temple and emerged from the right
side just below the temple, a wound
that had previously proved fatal as
have examined Dunn ever heard.

MAKING THE SOUTH
HEALTHIEST OF PART
The UNITED STATES
Progressive Farmer.)

What improved methods of santa
ton will accomplish was strongly
shown by Caspar Whitney in recent
issue of Golfers Weekly. Writing of
Cuba, once fever-stricken and an OBJ
ject of fear for all who valued their
lives, he showed that its present
death-rate of 1876 per thousand is low
er than that of the United States or
any European country. the average
death-rate in the United States being
80 per cent higher, or 1862 per thou
sand. All of which goes to show that
by keeping up the fight against our
great preventable diseases-tuber-
culosis, malaria, typhoid, and hook
worm dsease-we could make our
own Southern States, which are more
advantageously situated than Cuba,
not only as healthful as any other
section of the United States, but very
much more healthful than any other
section. In a recent address in the
House of Representatives, Congress
man Ransdell, of Louisiana, speaking
of the health of the South, was inter
rupted by Congressman Goulden, who
pointed out that whereas twenty-five
years ago insurance companies OBJ
,jected to risks in Southern cities,
there is now no discrimination what
ever against the South.
The simple truth is, as Surgeon
General Wyman of the United States
Public Health and Marine Service de-
clared to the Southern Commercial
Congress, that while neglect of sani-
tary precautions may be more hurt
full in the South than elsewhere, the
general observance of health rules
will accomplish even more here than
elsewhere.
"The South is a goodly land" Dr.
Wyman said: at is not only good
place for man, but it is a good place
for all living things, and unfortunately
some of these living things, for ex-
ample the germs of yellow fever and
malaria ard the hookworm, are the
enemies Of man. Man cannot occupy
any country uncontested by the germs
of disease, and this is particularly
true in countries like the South, where
sunshine and mild weather favor all
forms of life, both good and bad.
Here sanitation comes in"
And DR.. Wyman went on 70 par
ticularize:
"Such diseases as malaria and ty-
phoid fever are subject to the same
causative agencies in the South as
prevail elsewhere, and as to tuberc'
ulosis, the climate is favorable in that
it freely permits and encourages life
in the open air. With regard to this
and other diseases, the conditions
seem more favorable than in colder
localities where people are prone to
shut themselves up with the disease.
AS to hookworm diseases-due largely
to soil pollution-the conditions fav-
oring its spread can obviously be
readily removed. And in fact, all of
the important infectious diseases that
are found in the South are subject to
mans will If many only will. This
may be said, it is true, Of all portions
