Deafness Cannot be Cured

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 inhamed con-
bition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
lnfiamed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entire
iy closed deafness is the result, and un-
less the Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to it's normal con-
dition hearing will be destroyed forever ::
nine cases out of ten are caused bv
