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 inhamed condition
Of the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is infamed you
have a rumbling 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 restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out Of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous surface.
We will give one hundred dollars for
any case Of Deafness (caused by ca
tarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall 5
