Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot

There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness Is caused by an inf1amed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
Enstachian Tube. When this tube is
inf1amed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken 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 moth
