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 infamed con-
dition of the mucuous lining Of the En-.
stachian Tube. When this tube is IN
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and 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 destroyed
forever: nine cases out Of ten are caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition Of the mucous sur
faces.
