roach the diseased portion of the ear.
There Is only one way to euro deaf

remedies. Deafness is caused by an
Inflamed condition of tho Eustachian
Tube. When this tube Is Inflamed
you haw a rumbling eonnd or imper
feet hearing, and when It is entirely
closed, deafness Is the result, and un
elss the Inflammation can bo taken
out and this tube restored to its nor
wal condition, hearing will be de
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
