Deafness Can't Re Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion OF the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies
Deafness is caused by an intiamed con
.dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube When this tube gets
inflamed you have arumbiing sound and
imperfect hearing, and when it is entire
dy closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal con
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an infam-
ed condition of the mucus surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
amy case of Deafness (caused by catarrl, J
