I There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is onlly by constitutional remnedies
it )eafness is caused by an inflamed condi
tion of the mucous lining of the FuEta
chian Tube. When this tube is intlained
you have a rumbling sound of iiniw'rfect
Iearing, and when it is entirely clised,
lieafltess is the result, and unlel s the in
faniLltion can be taken out and this tuiil
restored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is
inothing but inflamed condition of the
Inucous surfaces.
