j CATARRHAL DEAFNESS CAN
NOT BE CURED.
I by local applications, as they cannot
! reach the diseased portion of the ear,
There is only one way to cure ca
tarrhal deafness, and that is by a
constitutional remedy. Catarrhal
deafness is caused by an inflamed
condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is the re
sult. Unless the inflammation car
be reduced and this tube restored t<
its normal condition, hearing will b<
destroyed forever. Many cases o!
deafness are caused by catarrh, whicl
is an inflamed condition of the mu
cous surfaces. Hall’s Catarrh Medi
cine acts through the blood on th<
mucous surfaces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollar:
i for any case of Catarrhal Deafnes
that cannot be cured by Hall’s Ca
: tarrh Medicine. Circulars free. A1
i Druggists, 75c.
