There is only one way to cure deaf
ness. and that is by constitutional rem
edies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining

tube gets infiamed you have a rum
bling 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

be destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by catarrh. which is
nothing but an infiamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.
