Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications. they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness. and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafnes- is caused by ar infiamed condition Of the mu- cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is unframed you have a rumbling 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 it's normal condi- tion. hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh. which is nothing but an infiamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

PLANTATION OWNER
SPENDS OVER SIS, 900
Mrs. Scruegs Suffered For 20
Years and Nothing She Tired
Did Her Any Good--.Tanla
Brings Relief.

1T may sound unreasonable and
you may believe me or not, but DUR
ing the past twenty years have paid
out in the neighborhood of five thous-
and dollars for medicines and treat
ments for my wife, who has been in
poor health all these years." was the
remarkable statement made a few
days ago in Jacobs Pharmacy, Mem
phis, Tenn, to the Tanlac representa-
tive by Mr.. George w. Scruggs,
prosperous farmer. Mr.. Scruggs is
well known in Memphis, where he re-
sided for fourteen years. For the
past three years he has been living on
his 350-acre cotton plantation at
Germantown, Tenn.
Eyes, sir, my wife had been suf-
ferer from serious Indigestion for at
least twenty years." continued Mr..
Scruggs in his interesting statement.
"She has been in a wretched. run
down condition, and was always COM
planning Of feeling badly. She couldn't
| eat much, but the little she did eat
would always cause pains in her
stomach. She had headache so bad
at times she could hardly stand it.
1t just looked like every bit of her
strength was getting away from her.
She was dreadfully nervous and didn't
know what it was to get a good
nights rest. and she would get up in
the mornings feeling worse than she
did when she went to bed the night
before. She lost about all the energy
she had and couldn't take interest 10
anything She tried doctors and about
every kind of medicine that was made,
| reckon, instead of improving she
seemed to be getting worse all the
time"
"But | thank goodness that we
have found the right medicine at
last She began taking ranlac short
time ago, and she is like a different
woman now. After taking just one
bottle of this medicine she began to
get strength and improve in every
way. Her sleep began to get restful.
her appetite picked up, and what she
ate gave her strength instead Of hav-
ing a bad effect as in the past. For
the first time in fifteen years she can
now eat anything she wants such
things as cabbage, onions, corn. to-
matoes and the like don't hurt her a
particle Her nerves are quiet and
her whole system is improved. She
looks and says she feels like new
woman. She is full of life and ener-
gv, and | never hear her complain
any more of feeling bad or weak in
the least. She thinks Tanlac is the
grandest thing in the world, but she
don't think any more of it than | do,
for no one is more happy over her
marvellous recovery than | am"
