Deafness CANNOT be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the year. There
is only one way to cure deafness, and that
is by constitutional remedies Deafness
is caused by an inf1smed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachisn Tube.
When this tube gets infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing. and
when 1t is entirely closed. deafness is the
result. and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition. hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an inf1amed condition of the mucous
sursces.
