Deafness Caa'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 constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an infamed con- dition of the mucous timing of the Eus- tachian Tube. When this tube gets in- famed you have rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entire ly closed, Deafness is the result, and, unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal con- dition, hearingwill be destroyed forever {; nine cases out of ten are caused by ca tarrh, which is nothing but an infamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
 We will give One Hundred Dol ars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that we cannot cure by taking Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

Everybody should read it. The calen- dar and astronomical calculations to be found in this brochure are always aston ishingly accurate, and the statistics, H. lustrations, humor and other reading matter rich in interest and full of profit.
