DEAFNESS CANNOT BF CUBED
by local appli cation?, as they cannot
reach the diseased Dortion of the ear.
Ttere la only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube Is inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or imper
fect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, deafness Is the result, and un
etas the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its nor
ma] condition, hoaxing will be de
stroyed forever ; nine eases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is noth
ing but an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness (caused by
Catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for cir
