Deafness Cannot Be 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 iniamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Bustachian Tube. When
his tube Is infiamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when 1t Is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result. and
unless the Inflammation can be taken out
md this tube restored to its normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever. nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inlamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure.
