The important fads stated in the following ar-
ticle deserve the attention of, the Pub:ic. It has
appeared in severed respeetable Papers :
" The Celebrated Dr. Taylor's Remedy for Dear-
ness, cures that complaint, whether it proceeds from
viole-nt colds in the head, excessive noise; hard wax
sticking in• the Cavity of the eats, &c.
" One bottle will completely cure the most ob-
stinate Deafness, and it is composed of ingredients
so perfectly harmless, that there is not a "po'sSibilify
of ite_ doing' the least injury to the,,ear. • The Ad_
vertiser is aware, that that tender organ ought not
-to' be tampered with; and that, like the eye, it,
requires a very delicate touch.
" The above Remedy is new to the world', and at
present is but partially known; but in the few.
months it- has been used, .it has performed cures
which haVe excited the utmost astonishment—and
it is to be observed, that Many of the Deaf who
have been restored by this Reniedy, reside within•
the circuit of this Paper—a fact which cannot' fail
to have its due weight on every unprejudiced mind..
"Persons who have been deaf for forty years and
upwards, have, by a single bottle, been restored to
the blessing of hearing, and have been able ,(to use
the emphatic language of a' gentleman who WO,
cured),'" to hear a mouse run across the floor."
