sentative Allen, chat two such brilliant

"Well, now" drawled the Mississippian
of famous wit, idaho is a long way off
and [ can't tell you much about why ShouI

Deafness Cannot he Cured

by local applications, as they cannot 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 condition of the mu-
cous lining Of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets inflamed 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 con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases of of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed condition
of the mucous surfaces
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure.
