Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reached 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 inaamed condi.
ton OF the mucous lining OF the Eusta-
chan Tube. When the tube is inflamed
you have 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 it's normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inhamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case OF DEAFNESS tcaused by catarrh)
