Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure catarrhal 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 rumbt ing sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result. Unless the inflammsr tion can be reduced and this tub* restored to Its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever. Many cases of deafness are caused by catarrh, which is an Inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. Hall’s Catarrh Medicine acts through the blood on the mucous surfaces ot the system. . _ ‘ We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Catarrhal Deafness that cannot be cured by Hall’s Car tarrh Medicine.
