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 rem
edies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining
of the Eustachian Tube When this tube
is infiamed YOU have a rumblng sound
or imperfect hearing, ana when it is en-
tirely closed. Deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to it's
normal condition. hearing will be de-
StrOyed forever: nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is
nothing but an inflamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.
