There is only one wayWSlSft deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed con dition' of the mucous lining of the Eus tachian Tube. When this tube is in flamed you have a rumbling sound or mperfeci hearing, and when it is en tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever. Nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the niucuos sur faces.

A few months ago I caught a severe cold, hav ing been out in inclement weather, which settled all over me, particularly in the abdomen. I was in almost constant pain. I consulted a physician and took his medicine for a month and without any relief. I then decided I would try your medicine and it was a lucky day for me when I did so. I noticed a change in a few days and felt encouraged to continue taking "Wine of Cardui, and my patience was rewarded, for in two weeks my pains had left me and I felt like a new woman." Jfri.
