There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by con jstilutional remedies. Deafness is ! caused by an inflamed condition of i the mucous lining of the Euitachain Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or im perfect hearing, and when it is en tirely closid, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be distroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condi tion of themuocus surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dol lars for any ease of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J. Cheney, & Cos .( Toledo, Ohio.
