Deafness Cannot Be 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
inhamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is in6amed you have
rumbling 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 its 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
Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circu-
lars, free.

Stephens City, Na.-"My father had

manifested itself in tho form of bleeding
hemorrhoids and later developed into
tumors as large as a hens egg. Then no

or lying down. His trouble caused great
deal Of itching. burning and pain He lost
n great deal OF sleep. Tho affected parts
were irritated and innamcd very much.
1T was during one of his severe attacks
that suggested to him the use of Cutlcura
Soap and Ointment. He found much relief
from the itching and burning by bathing tho
affected parts with warm water and Cuti-
cura Soap After that he would apply tho
Cuticura Ointment. The first application
relieved him considerably and after three
applications he was able to 20 to work. lio
