by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There's only one way to cure catarrh-
al deafness, and that is by a constitu-
itonal remedy. Catarrhal deafness is
caused by an infiamed condition of the
mucuous lining OF The Eustachian
Tube When this tube is infiamed you
have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result. Unless the in
flammation can be reduced and this
tube restored to its normal condition
hearing will be destroyed forever
Many cases of deafness are caused by
catarrh. which is an infiamed condi-
tion of the mucous surfaces. Halls
Catarrh Cure acts through the blood on
the mucous surfaces of the system.
We will give One Hundred dollars
for any case of Catarrh Deafness that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarra
