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 infamed condition of the mucous lining of
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is infamed
you have rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation 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 inf1amed condition of
the mucous surfaces.
