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 ca tarrhal deafness. and that is by a con stitutional remedy. Catarrhal deafness is caused by an inhamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is the result. Unless the in flammation can be reduced and this tube restored to it's normal condition. hearing will be destroyed forever, Many cases of deafness are caused by catarrh, which is an inf1amed condition of the mucous surfaces. Halls Catarrb Medicine acts through the blood on the mucous surfaces Of the system.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of catarrhal deafness that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Medicine. Circulars free. All drug gists, 75c.
