Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure catar-
rhal deafness, and that is by a constit-
utional remedy Catarrhal Deafness is
caused by an innamed condition of the
mucous lining Of the Eastachian Tube.
When this tube Is innamed you have a
rumbiug sound or Imperfect hearing,
and when it IS entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result. Unless the milan
nation can be reduced and this tube
restored 10 its normal condition, hear

cases of deafness are caused by catarrh,
which is an innamed condition Of the

Her first solo fight was for this
