Tcld by Geo. H. Wilson, the inventor.
 I was deaf from infancy. Eminent doctors, surgeons and ear specialists treated me at great expense and yet did me no good. I tried all the arti- ficial appliances that claimed to restore hearing, but they failed to benefit me in the least. even went to the best specialists in the world, but their ef- forts were unavailing.
 My case was pronounced incura5Ie!
 I grew desperate; my deafness ter mented me Daily I was becoming more of recluse, avoiding the companion- ship of people because of the annoy ance my deafness and sensitiveness caused me. Finally I began to experi- ment on myself, and after patient years of study, labor and personal expense l perfected something that I found took the place of the natural ear drums, and I called it Wilson's Com mon Sense Ear Drum, which I now wear day and night with perfect com fort, and do not even have to remove them when washing. No enc can tell l am wearing them, as they do not show, and as they give no discomfort whatever, l scarcely know it myself
 With these drums I can now hear whisper. I jcin in the general conver- sation and hear everything going on around me. I can hear a sermon ol lecture from any part of a large church or hall My general health is improved because of the great change my Ear Drums have made in my life. My sp.r- it's are bright and cheerful. I am Q cured, changed man.
 Since my fortunate discovery tt is no longer necessary for any deaf pc '-~1 to carry a trumpet, tube, or any other such old-fashioned makeshift My Common Sense Ear Drum is built On the strictest scientific principles, contains TO metal, wires or strings of any kind. and is entirely new and up to date ir all respects. It is 90 small that no one can see it when in position. yet it collects all the sound waves md focuses them against the drum head. causing you to hear naturally anI per fcctly. IL will do this even when tue natural ear drums are partially CT en- tircly destroyed perforated, scared, relaxed. or thickened. It fits any car from childhood to old age, male or fe- male, and aside from the fact that it does not show, it never causes inc least irritation and can be used with comfort day and night without removal for any cause.
 With my device I can cure deafness :Ii any person, no matter how acquired W hether from catarrh. scarlet fever, typhoid or brain fever, measles, whoop- ing cough, gatherings in the ear, shocks from artillery or through acci- dents. My invention not only cures, but at once steps the progress of deaf ness and all roaring and buzzine noises. The greatest auraI surgeons in the world recommend it, as well as physicians of all schools. It will do for you what no medicine or medicinal skill on earth can do.
