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 ig inflamed you have a rumbling sound or im perfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the resuit. Uniess the inflammation can be reduced and this tube 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 sur faces. Hall's Catarrh Medicine acts thry the blood on the mucous surfaces of the system. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Catarrhal! Deafness that cannot be cured by Hall’'s Catarrh Medicine. Cir culars free. All Druggists, 75c. F. J. CHENEY & CO., Toledo, O.
