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 catarrhal deafness, and that is by a constitutional remedy Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an in- famed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube When this tube is infamed you have a Tumbling sound or irn- perfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result. Unless the inflammation can be reduced and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever. Many cases of deafness are caused by catarrh, which is an infiamed condition of the mucous sur- faces. Halls Catarrh Medicine acts thru the blood on the mucous surfaces of the system
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Catarrhal Deafness that cannok be cured by Halls Catarrh Medicine. Cir culars free. All Druggists, 75c.
