DEAFNESS CANNOT RE 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 rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and whom
il is entirely closed. deafness is the re-
suit, 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 condition Of
the mucous surfacts.
We win give one hundred dollars for
any case Of deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
