Never believe that Diarrhoea in an infant during
the Summer months is due to its teeth. Take it to a
doctor at once.
DRAINS, etc. Keep your drains, sinks, gulleys, etc.,
well flushed with water. This is better than any amount of
disinfectants. Report to the Town Hall at once any defective
sanitary appliances, sinks, closets, drains stagnant water, etc.
