THE FALL OF BROOKLYN BRIDGE.

The Brooklyn bridge is being weak
ened by electrolysis. Its four great
cables are live wires through which
wildcat currents are constantly flow-
Ing. These are escaping to the ground
through the anchorages. which they are
eating away at an estimated rate of
zine tons a year. The conclusion is
that the electrolytic effect must be over
come at once or the bridge may some
day fai. into the river. or it
may have to be closed. Health
is often undermined in a like
manner-by the neglect Of trivial mat
ters. Constipation. indigestion. dyspep-
sia. bIlIousness or nervousness should
be checked ct once. Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters will do 1t. No other
medicine is as good for all disorders of
the stomach. Don't fail to give 1t a
trial.
