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 constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed cons
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus.
tachian Tube. When this tube is infam.
ed you have a rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely clos
ed, 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 condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness Caused by catarrh
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrb
Onre. Send for circulars free.

ALAsTlNG EFFECT
This Evidence Should Prove Every Claim
Made for DOan's Kidney Pills in
Brownsville.

Relief from the pains and aches
of a bad back is always welcome
to every backache sufferer; but to
cure a lame, weak or aching back
is what's wanted. Cure it so it
will stay cured. It can be done.
Here's the strongest evidence to
prove it;
c. H. Hoencke, of 2319 Nc
Kinney Ave. Houston, Tex,
manufacturer and dealer in barrels
since 1872, says: For about a
year I had more or less trouble
with my kidneys. 1t was caused
by a cold or by straiuing my back.
1 had much lumbago, and when
ever 1 made a sudden movement
I felt sharp darting pain through
my kidneys. Ny back was often
so lame and sore that I could not
stoop without suffering severely.
The kidney secretions scalded and
were very scant in quantity. I
used remedy after remedy but
found little benefit until 1 got
! Doan's Kidney Pills or the advise
of friend who had been cured.
By the time 1 had taken half the
box the backache had disappeared
and the secretions were clear and
natural. I have advised many
others to use this remedy and al
ways keep a supply in the house. -
Plenty more proof like this from
Brownsville people. Call at Geo.
M. Pute ma s drug store and ask
what Gus ON rs report.
