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 in¬
flamed 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 result. Unless the
inflammation can be reduced and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever. Many caseii of
deafness aro caused by catarrh, which is
an Inflamed condition of the mucous sur¬
faces. Hall s Catarrh Cure acts thru the
blood on the mucous surfaces of the sys¬
tem.
We We will win give give One one Hundred Hunarea Dollars uonar* for ior
any can of Catarrhal Deafnr.aa that cannot
be cured by Hairs Catarrh Cure. Circular*
