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. Deaf
ness is caused by an infiamed
condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube gets infiamed you have a
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 ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an In
famed condition of the mucous
surfaces.

Dollars for any case. of Deafness,

An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGS, manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA FI6 SYRUP Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. 1t
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from SIENNA and
other aromatic plants, by method
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP
Co. only. In order to get its beneficial
effects and to avoid limitations, please
