Deafness Cannot Be Cured. by local applications, as they cannot roach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that i3 by constitutional remedies. 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 entirelv closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflan-.d condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Ca'arrh Cure. Sen.t for circulars, free. F. J. CHENEY & CO.. Toledo. O.
