To Relieve Catarrhal
Deafness And
Head Noises

Persons suffering from catarrhal
deafness and head noises will be glad
to know that this distressing affection
can usually be successfully treated at
home by internal medicine that in
many instances has effected complete
relief after other treatm ents have
failed. Sufferers who could scarcely
hear have had their hearing restored
to such an extent that the tick of a
watch was plainly audible seven or
eight inches away from either ear.
Therefore IL you know of someone who
is troubled with head noises or ca
tarrha1 deafness, cut out this formula
and hand 1t TO them and you may have
been the means &c saving some poor
sufferer perhaps :~om total deafness.
The prescription can be prepared at
home and is made as follows:
Secure from your druggist 1 OF. Par
mint double Strength). about rs
cents worth. Take this home and add
to 1T Ia pint OF hot water and OF.
Of granulated sugar; stir until dis
solved. Take one tablespoonful four
times a day.
Parunint is used in this way not
only to reduce by tonic action the In
aammat1on and swelling in the Eusta-
chan tubes, and thus to equa1ize the
air pressure on the drum, but to cor
rect any excess OF secretions in the
middle ear, and the results 1t gives are
nearly always quick and effective.
Every person who has catarrh in
any form should give this recipe a
trial Lee & Osgood can supply you.
