Catarrh Deafness-Hay Fever-A New Home
Treatment.
Sufferers are not generally aware that these dis
eases are contagious, or that they are due to the
presence Of living parasites in the lining membrane
Of the nose and eustachirn tubes. Microscopic re-

the result OF this discovery Is that simple remedy
has been formulated whereby catarrh, catarrhal
deafness and hay fever are permanently cured in
from one to three simple applications made at
home by the patient once in two weeks.
