Deafness Cannot Be Cured

BY local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that Is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an inflamed condition of the mu-
cuous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is infiamed you have
a rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing. and when 1t Is entirely closed,
deafness is the result, and unless the
Inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to Its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
but an infiamed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces.
