By Order of the Keswick Urban District Council. CONSUMPTION -A-JSTJD INFLUENZA. THESE COMPLAINTS ARE CATCHING. In order to prevent their spread, all persons who have to spit (especially in rooms and public conveyances), .should do so in rags or a bottle carried in the pocket, — to be afterwards burned or thoroughly cleansed by boiling water. Proper bottles may be had from the Chemist. Spitting indiscriminately about the streets is an unnecessary, objectionable, and dangerous habit. No persons suffering from Influenza should attend Meetings, Church, &c., or otherwise mix with their fellows. J. R. BURNETT, Medical Officer of Health. H. S. WILSON, PRINTER, ETC.
