The Taxpayers Party at their con

Ttere is onJy one way to cure deaf
c<as, and tha* is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflaoKNi condition of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflanxM
you have a rumbling souud or imper
fect hearing, and when it is entirely
clvtsed, deafness is the result, and un
eiss the iuflammation can be taker,
out and this tube restored to its nor
mal condition, hearing will be de
stray wl forever ; aine cas?>s out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is noth
iug but an inflamed condition of Uit
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness (caused bj
Catarrh) that cannot be eurwl by
Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for cir
culars, free.
