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 i.
caused by an intlamed condition of the
mucous lining of the euStachian tube
When this tube gets inhamed YOU have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored TO its nor
NAL condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused bd
catarrh, which is nothing but an infancy
condition of the mucus surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case ofdeafness (cauSed by catarrh) that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure.
