DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness and that is by constitutional remedies. Deatness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachlan Tube, When this tubeget inflamed you have a rumbing sound os imperfect hearing, and when it is en tirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflamatioin can be taken out and this tube restored to its noimal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are cans d by catarrh, Which is nothing but an inflamed condition of mucous sur faces.
