When this tube is intlamed you have q rumblng sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deli ness is the result. Unless the intiama- ton san be reduced and this tube re- stored to it's normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever Many eases of deafness are caused by catarrh. which is an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
