Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local application as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness. and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inhamed condition Of the mucous lin
ing Of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result, and unless the inhamma
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever. Nine
cases out of ten are caused by Ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous SER
vices.
We viii give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for cir
culars, free.
