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 and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition Of the mu-
cous lining Of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have q 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 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 mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
