CUT THIS OUT
OLD ENGLISH RECIPE FOR CATAR-
RIAL DEAFNESS AND
HEAD NOISES.

If you know someone who is troubled
with head noises, or Catarrhal Deafness.
cut out this formula, and hand 1t to
them, and you will have been the
means of saving some poor sufferer
perhaps from total deafness. Recent
experiments have proved conclusively
that Catarrhal Deafness, head noises,
etc. were the direct cause of constitu-
tionaI disease. and that salves, sprays.
inhalers, etc, merely temporiZe with the
complaint and seldom, ii ever. effect a
permanent cure. This being so. much
time and money has been spent of late
by noted specialist in perfecting a
pure, gentle, yet effective tonic that
would quickly dispel all traces OF the
catarrhal poison from the system The
effective prescription which was even
tually formulated, and which has
aroused the belief that deafness will
soon be extinct. is given below i'll un-
derstandable form. SO that anyone can
treat themselves in their own home at
little expense.
Secure from Mcbride & Will Drug
Co. or any druggist, ! OF. Parmint
Double Strength. about 75c worth.
Take this home and add to it u pint
of hot water and 4 OF. of graduated
sugar: stir until dissolved. Take one
tablespoonful four times day.
The first dose should begin to relieve
the distressing head noises. headache,
dullncss, cloudy thinking. etc. while
the hearing rapidly returns as tn" sys
tenn is invigorated by the tonic action
of the treatment. Loss of smell and
mucus dropping in the back Of the
throat are other symptoms that show
the presence of catarrhal poison. and
which are often entirely overcome by
this efficacious treatment. Nearly nine
ty per cent. of all ear troubles are di-
rectly caused by catarrh; therefore.
there must be many people whose hear
ing can be restored by this simple home
treatment.
Every person, who is troubled with
head noises, catarrhal deafness or ca
tarrh in any form, should give this pre-
scription trial. Mcbride & Will Drug
Company can supply you.
