Show word of caution is deem issued bk inspector . In an Interview this morning, Inspector In-spector Georgo Shorten said that, though full reports of new cases of Influenza In-fluenza were not in. he inclined to the belief that Friday was a Hghtor day than the preceding four days. Three I deaths occurred during the night. There was Increasing evidence throughout all parts of the city that precautions are being seriously- heeded heed-ed by a greater number of people. "In. all homes where persons are suffering of tho disease, there is need for a precaution which many people seem not to be aware of," said the Inspector. In-spector. "It is hardly fair to the community com-munity that from these homes- there should be sent to tho local laundries handkerchiefs which have been used by the sufferers. Far better is it to dispense with the handkerchief altogether alto-gether and give for tho patient's use any of rags that may be burned immediately im-mediately after use, than risk the spreading of tho disease through a seemingly worthy desire for cleanliness cleanli-ness by sending the handkerchiefs to the laundries." oo . i |
