Deafness Can't be 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 con- stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an infiamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or i'm perfect hearing. and W en it is entirely closed, Deafness is the resu t, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condi ion, hearing will be destro. ed forever. Nine Ca ,es out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inf1amed condition of the mucuous sur faces.
 We will give one hundred dollars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that we cannot cure by taking Halls Catarrh Cure Send for circulars, free.

A European traveller, who was visiting the
