Deafness Cannot be Cured by local applications, as they can not reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that's by the constitutional remedies. Deaf ness is caused by an inflame 1 con dition of the mucous lining r f the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deaf ness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken 6ut and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be de stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed con dition of the mucous surfaces We will give One Hundred Dol lars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure.
