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
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition of the mucous
lining Of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube Is inflamed you have a
rumbllng sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
hammation 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.
We will give one hundred dollars
for any case Of deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by
