DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

By local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portions of the

deafness, and that is by constitu-
tional remedies. = Deafness is nearly
always caused by an infiamed condi-
ton of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a rumpling sound or
impaired hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation be TAX
en- 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 infiamed condition of

How to Use Peruna
for Coughs and Colds

If Peruna were used at the begin
ming of every cold, coughs would gen.
orally be prevented.
After the cough begins Peruna will
generally stop it just as quickly as it
ought to be stopped. To stop q cough
before all of the expectoration has
been removed is to do great injury.
After the expectoration has been
properly removed the cough will stop
itself. That is the only proper way
to stop a cough.
Occasionally cough depends upon
an irritable condition Of the larynx
or bronchial tubes, in which there is.
little or no expeetOration.
The problem Of stopping such a
cough is a slightly different one
Even ine those cases Peruna ought to-
be taken, but sometimes it is neces-
sary that local treatment be added.
Every one who/has troublesome
cough or lingering cold should write
the Peruna Company. Columbus,
Ohio, for a free copy of the Ills Of
Life" There is no free pamphlet dis
tributed to-day of more real value
to the sick and afflicted than the new
Ellis of Life" 1t is filled from cover
to cover with actual cases of cough,
colds and other climatic diseases IN
all stages and complications. You
could scarcely fail to find your case
exactly described in this book.
To neglect to do everything possible
to get rid of a stubborn cold or
chronic cough IS very unwise indeed
Peruna has enjoyed a great reputa-
ton as a remedy in such cases for
thirty or forty years. AS a rule. a
person who uses one bottle of it is
always afterwards an enthusiastic
advocate of Peruna. Peruna itself is
a means of selling more Peruna than
all advertisements put together.
Those who object to liquid medi-
cines can now obtain Peruna Tablets.
