DEAFNESS CANNOT Be CURED

by local applications, as they can
not 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
Eustachiian Tubes. When this
tube is inhamed you have rumbI.
ing sound or imperfect hearing and
en- it is entirely closed, Deaf
Mss is the result, end unless the
inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal
condition hearing will be forever
destroyed; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrn, which is
nothing but an inhamed condition
of the m Icous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars
for any case Of Deafness (causcd
by Catrrah) that cannot be cured
