lean people would do we'll to consider
the method employed by the English to
combat this insidious disease. Every
one knows how damp the English eli

suffering from catarrh. In England
they treat catarrhal deafness and head
noises as constitutional disease and
use an internal remedy for it that is
really very efficacious.
Sufferers who could scarcely hear a
watch tick tell how they had their hear

to such an extent that the tick of a
watch was plainly audible seven and
