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 constitu-

Eustachian Tube. Whel this tube Is lnfiamed
you have a runlbling sound OF imperfect hear
Ing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result and unless the Inflammation can be

condition, hearing will be destroyed forever
nine cases out OF ten are caused by Catarrh,
