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.
Deafness is caused by an infiamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
infiamed you have a rumbllng 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 resl bred to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh. which is moth
ing but an infian,cd 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.
