Deafness Cannot b 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 inflamed condition OF the muc
Gus lining Of the Eustacnian Tube. When
this tube is indamed you have rum bling
sound or imperfect hearing and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal cond5-
ton, hearing viii BE- restored forever: nine
cases out of ten are caused by CaIaTEh,
which is nothing but an indamed condition
of the II ucOuS surfaces.

case OF Deafness Caused by cararrh] that
cannot be cured by Hairs Catarrh Cure.
