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 intiamed you have
a 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
its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which Is nothing
but an inf1amed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
