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 inflamed
condition of the mucous lining of tn.
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have 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 its nor
NAL condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of 10
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an infamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars free.
