Many other women are

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portions of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an intiamed con.
dition of the mucous lining of the Eu-
tacian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a Iumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be ia
ken out and this tube restored to it's
normal condition, hearing will be de-
strOyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
but an infamed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
