Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cr.nnot reach
th^ diseased portion of the e*r. There Is
only oiu way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness Is
caused i>y an inflamed condition of the mu
cous llr.n.T of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you ha Ye a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when It Is
entirely closed. Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal condi
tio**. hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of t«^n are caused by Catarrh.
«rh!ch is nothing but an inflamed condition
of the icocouv surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any

cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Curs.
