Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the car. There is
only one way to cure Deafness, and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets infiamed you have
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 catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of the mucous
