Deafness Cannot Be Cured

BY local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion Of
the ear, There is only one way to
cure deafness, and that is by cOnsti-
tutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inhamed condition of
the mucous lining of the Eustach-
ian tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, ana when it
is entirely closed deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the Inflammation
can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but
an infamed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of deafness Caused
by catarrh) that cannot be cured
by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for
circulars free.
