INSANITY CLAIMS

BAD TEETH, TOO, DISABLE.’
Cold and Dampness In Tranches Causa
Neuralgia and Put 8oldiara Out of
Businaaa—Dantista Being Sant to the
Front as Fast as They Can Be Re
cruitsd to Treat tha Defective Molars.
Insanity and nervous prostration nre
claiming lurge numbers of the British
who have lain for weeks under Ger
man fire In the trenches about Yprea,
according to a Southampton dispatch.
The Insanity wards In the big govern
ment hospital at Netley, England, nre
diled to overflowing, and all the hos
pitals In the south of England have
many patients who have suffered nerv
ous collapse and have been sent back
for treatment
MoNt of the eases show decided Im
provement as soon ns the men get into
new surroundings and have quiet
Many of the patients suffering with
nervous afflictions said when they left
Belgium that they could never eudure
further service under the tire of heavy
gui; ;. hut nevertheless they clamor to
return to the field of action ns soon as
they get a grasp on their nerves
A large number of Invalided soldiers
have never been touched by a bullet or
a shell and show no physical signs of
disability. Some of the most desjierate
cases ure men who were terribly
shocked by shells exploding near them
A boy of eighteen, wtio recently left
Netley to visit Ills relatives In Man
chester. was hurled through the air for
fifty feet by the force of an exploding
shell, not a fragment of which touched
him. Both car drums were broken, and
he was unconscious several days, tits
brain was so affected that lie was un
able to see anything for weeks In ease
he became the least excited When he
left Netley hospital he still walked un
steadily and complained that dark
spots frequently appenred Is-fore ids
eyes.
Shoot Own Hands a d Feet.
As I* thi* case In near!.. all military
action. Boldlcra are oir rare occasions
found shooting their own hands and
feet or exposing their arms and hands
to the fire of the enemy that they ntay
get wounds which will relieve them
from service In the trenches. This is
attributed to shattered nerves In many
cases, although there are occasional
courts martial In cases where there Is
reason to believe that cowardice In
spired such action.
Had teeth are playing havoc with
the English troops exitosod to cold and
dampness lu the trenches. As fast as
they can lie recruited dentists are be
ing sent to the front to treat defective
teeth, which have caused neuralgia
and disabled men otherwise sound.
Recruiting officers were at first very
particular about the tqpth of appll
cunts for admission to the array, but
It soon became necessary to let down
the bars. As the middle and lower
class [>eople of England take iudlffer
ent care of their mouths and seldom
have their teeth treated, dental trou
hies have been numerous.
"1 nm not going to bite the Ger
mans." was the protest of an English
man turned down at the opening of
the war because of defective teeth
Hut the developments of the last three
months have shown that no soldier Is
any better than his teeth. Inability to
masticate the course army fare pro|>
erly has Incapacitated large uumlwrs
of soldiers who were not actually
forced to leave the front because of
aching teeth and swollen Jaws, aggra
voted by standing for days In wet
trenches.
It Is not unusual to see new recruits
who have part of their front teeth
missing and others badly decayed.
Hut such men are turned over to the
dental corps as rapidly ns possible
and given careful treatment. If re
cruiting officers in England were to
demand the sound teeth required for
admission to the American army they
would get few recruits.
TYPHOID IN SPAGHETTI.
Ninety-three Cases Traced to a Cook
at a Church Dinner,
A typhoid epidemic of ninety-three
cases in the city of Hanford. Cal., Is
reitortod by Dr. W. A. Sawyer, Berke
ley. Cal., lu a recent issue of the Jour
mil of the American Medical Associa
tion. All the cases could be traced to
a church dinner, and the infection
came from a typhoid carrier among
those who prepared and served the
food, a woman who did not know that
she had had typhoid.
The Infection was conveyed In a
dish of Spanish spaghetti. Only those
partaking of It were primarily affect
od. and only one secondary case was
reported. Dr. Sawyer sums up his
conclusions as follows:
"The course of Infection In the nine
ty-three cases of typhoid fever In the
Hanford epidemic was a typhoid ear
Her, who prepared food served at a
public dinner. The vehicle of the In
faction was a large pan of Spanish
spaghetti, prepared by the carrier
This dish was baked after It had been

PET GORILLA IS SICK: GOES
FOR A JOY RIDE IN GOCART.

Woods Hutchinson Prescribes
Unique Cure For Bronx Zoo Animal.
A gorilla*) wing w heeled In n baby
carriage was the remarkable spectacle
that greeted tile eyes of visitors to
Bronx park. New York
Their eye* opened still wider when
they learned that the gorilla was n pa
tlent of l»r. Wood* Hutchinson nnd
Dr. Amos, who Is assistant to Dr. Si
mon Flex tier.
The beast's name Is Dinah, and the
reason for the concern over her health
and the distinguished person* engaged
to preserve It Is that she Is the only
gorilla now alive In captivity. She
was brought to the Bronx zoo four
months ago by Professor Garner, who
had kept her In u cage In Africa for
eighteen months to make sure she
would be accustomed to the surround
lugs she must have here.
There was n great deal of difficulty
In bringing her over I>ooauso of the
delay of vessels In the war zone, but
she arrived In excellent condition, and
the authorities at the zoo were Justly
proud of the acquisition
A few weeks ago Curator Dltinnr*
noticed that Dinah did not move with
her usual alacrity. He called Drs
Hutchinson nnd Amos They said Dl
nah needed fresh air.
So Keeper Kngleholm was assigned
to bo her nurse A largo goenrt was
bought, and the gorilla Is strapp'd Into
It each day before the airing. Heavy
furs envelop nil hut the head of the
animal, nnd Kngleholm Is all but a
nervous wreck from quieting the alarm
of those who fear the beast nnd grat
Ifying the curiosity of those who don't
AN ALL AMERICA COIN.
One Design For Five Dollar Piece For
the Different Republics.
The forthcoming Issue of The A inert
ens, the journal of the National City
bank, will contain an Interesting ac
count of u proposed puu-Americnn coin
on the dollar basis of exchange In
pnrt It will say:
"As a help to the popularization of
the dollar In South American tru'.e
Horace G Knowles, former minister
of the United States to several Balkan
and Igitln American countries, lias
suggested that a souvenir live dollar
gold piece be coined in connection with
the oisudng of the Panama-Pacific ex
position, so designed that the repub
lies of South America may later tie
prevailed upon to adopt It among their
own national coins and thus establish
a form of money that will ultimately
pass current anywhere lu the western
hemisphere."
The face of the design for the sug
gested coin contains a reproduction of
a male and female head, significant of
North and South Americas. One Is a
forceful Inca head, representing the
earliest government In this hemisphere,
and the other Is a refined Columbia
bead, representing the most modern.
At the top of the design are the words
“Peace, Brotherhood and Justice” lu
Latin, while at the bottom Is the In
scription "5—Dollars—5.” The design
also shows twenty-one stars, slgulfi
cant of the twenty-one American re
mihlloR
Mr. Knowles suggests that the re
verse of the coin would probably be of
special design for each of the conn
tries adopting the piece, but that sonic
compromise might be found even fur
that. The design Is said to lie tin
only one for a coin that contains the
hends of both the male and female of
the human race
