Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There Is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an inflamed condition Of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is infamed you have
a rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever, nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
but an infamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of Deafness (caus-
ed by CatarrhV that cannot be cured
