Deafness Cannot Be Cured

There is only one way to cure Deafness
and that is by CO institutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infiamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eu-
stachian Tube. When this tube gets
infiamed you have 3 rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be TAX
en- out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-

are caused by catarrh, which is moth
