Deafness Cannot BE Cured

By local applications, as they cannot

deafness and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused By an

ing of the eustachian tube. When
this tube gets inilaned you have q
rum bling sound or i'm perfect hearing,
and when 1t Is entirely closed deafness
is the result, and unless the inf1am ma

restored to it's normal condition hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of 10 are caused by catarrh,
