fever, and is liable to be confused with that affection. The
important fact connected with influenza is that it is in a
high degree infectious, and persons suffering should not
receive unnecessary visitors, or go into places of public
resort.
Constant Water Supply.
The West Middlesex Water Company by next May
will give the whole District a constant service of water.
At the present time the only portion without a constant
service is situated north of the Marylebone Road—an
irregularly shaped area, which may be said roughly to be
bounded on the east by Park Road, High Street, St. John's
Wood, and a part of Ordnance Road up to the northern
boundary; on the west it is bounded by Grove Road,
Grove End Road, and Abbey Road. A large number of
householders in the area mentioned have been served with
notices to provide certain fittings necessary for the constant
supply.
Underground Rooms.
In the case of five underground rooms, situated in
Hereford Street, the owners not having complied with the
notice, the owners were summoned before the Magistrate,
who adjourned the cases on the undertaking of the
defendants to get the present tenants out, and to discontinue
the illegal occupation.
Correction.
In the December Report it was stated, through
inadvertence, that David Weir was fined under the Sale of
Food and Drugs Act, whereas it should have been John
Spicer, the Agent or Manager of David Weir.
