Acute diseases like scarlet fever some
times cause deafness But by far the
most common cause OF loss of hearing
Is catarrh OF the head and throat.
A prominent specialist on ear troubles
gives as his opinion that nine out OF
ten cases OF deafness Is traced 10 throat
trouble; this is probably overstated. but
II 10 certainly true that more than half
OF all cases Of poor hearing were caused
by catarrh.
The catarrhal secretion In the nose
and throat finds its way into the Eus-
tachian tube and by clogging II up very
soon affects the hearing, and the hard
ening OF the secretion makes the loss
Of hearing permanent, unless the ca
tarrh which caused the trouble Is cured.
Those who are hard of hearing may
think this little far fetched, but any
one at all obseryant must have noticed
how hard cold in the head will affect
the hearing and that catarrh II long
neglected Will certainly Impair the sense
Of hearing and ultimately cause deaf.
ness.
II the nose and throat are kept clear
and free from the unhealthy secretions
OF catarrh, the hearing viii at once
greatly improve and anyone suffering
from deafness and catarrh can satisfy
themselves on this point by using fifty
cent box OF Stuart's Catarrh Tablets,
new catarrh cure, which In the past
year has won the approval OF thousands
Of cataish sufferers, as Well a. physI-
clans. because II is in convenient form
TO use, contains no cocaine or opiate
and IL as safe and pleasant for children
as for their elders
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets Is q whole
some combination OF Blood root Guaia-
col, EucaIyptol and similar antlseptics
and they cure catarrh and catarrhal
deafness by action upon the blood and
mucous membrane Of the nose and
throat.
AS one physician aptly expresses II:
you do not have TO draw upon the
imagination TO discover whether you
are getting benefit from Stuarts Ca
tarrh Tablets; improvement and relief
are apparent from the first tablet taxi
en-"
All druggists sell and recommend
them. They cost but fifty cents for full
sized package and any catarrh sufferer
who has wasted time and money on
sprays, salves and powders, win APP
preciate to the full the merit Of Stuarts
Catarrh Tablets.

One thing Is certain, Young Corbett,

not have declared that a chance blow

nicer and mUie sportsmanlike II would
have been on the part of Harris to
