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
constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an inflamed condi-
ton of the mucus lining OF the
Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inflamed you have a rumb-
ling 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
normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed
condition of the mucus surfaces.
We will give Cne Hundred
