Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications az they cannot reach the
diseased portion OF the ear. There is only one
way TO cure deafness, and that is by consttu
tional remedies Deafness is caused by an in
ismed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is fntamed
ing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness Is
the result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out OF ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inhamed condition OF
the mucous surfaces.
