Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot 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 in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. when this tube is infamed
you have rumbling sound or imperfect hearing
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 condi
ton hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases
out of ten are caused by catarrh. which is moth.
ing but an infamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars forany case
