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 inhamed condition of the mucous lin.
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube
is infamed you have rumbling sound or i'm.
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely clos
ed, Deafness is the result, and unless the in
aammation 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 inflamed 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.

Must Be Careful.

That both the physician who writes
a prescription for denatured alcohol
and the druggist who prepares the
prescription and sells the medicine
to the patient are liable to criminal
prosecution, is held in decision rem :
dered by Commissioner of Internal
Revenue Capers. The decision is the
result of the action of some druggist
who prescribed denatured alcohol for
external medicinal purposes not
knowing that to do 80 is violation
of the law. The decision says:
"Conpletely denatured alcohol
contains kerosene and crude wood
alcohol which renders it unfit even
for external medication. Moreover,
the second section of the law regu
lating the sale and manufacture of
denatured alcohol provides fine and
imprisonment for any person who
uses denatured alcohol for manufac-
turing any beverage or liquid medi-
cinal preparation, or knowingly sells
any preparation made in part Or
wholly from such alcohol.
