Deafness. Cannot BE Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There Is
only one way to cure deafness, ana that Is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness Is
caused by an inhamed condition of the mu-
cous lining OF the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets infiamed you have 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 con-
dition, hearing viii be DESTROYED forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed condition
of the mucous surfaces
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that
