Catarrhal Deafness Cannot
Be Cured
JERRY.

BY local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure catarrhal
deafness, and that is by a constitutional
remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is caused by
an intiamed condition Of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is int1amed you have n rnmbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when 1t
is entirely closed Deafness is the result.
Unless the inflammation can be reduced
and this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing viii be destroyed forever.
Many cases of deafness are caused by
catarrh, which is an intiamed condition
of the mucous surfaces. Halls Catarrh
Medicine acts thru the blood on the mu-
cous surfaces OF the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case OF Catarrhal Deafness that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Medicine.
