There is only one way to cure deaf

remedies. Deafness is caused by ar
infamed condition of the mucous

this tube is inflamed, you have q
rumbling sound or imperfect heaCing
and when it is entirely closed, deaf
ness is the result and unless the in
dammatiOn 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
