Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the eustachian tube. When
this tube is inhamed you have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restor-
ed 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.
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
