Deafness Cannon be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, that is by constitutional reme-
dies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition Of the muscous lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is intamed you have a rumbliug
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
il is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result and unless the inflammation car
be taken out and this tube restored
to IFS normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by Catarrh, which IS
nothing but an characterization OF
the muscous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
