Ive Deaf for a Year
Caused by ^
ill
tor Catarrh in the Head
Catarrh is a Constitutional disease
!en and requires a Constitutional Remedy
try like Hood's S^rsapariUa to cure it. Read:
ijjjj <* Three years ago, as a result of catarrh, I
entirely lost my hearing and was deaf for more
ite than a year. I tried various things to cure It,
and had several physicians attempt It, hut no <
ier .mnrovement was apparent X eVuld dUihi-t
I',u1?b no sound. 1 was intending putting
is. myself under the care of a speciallsf whet;
some one suggested that possibly Hood's 8ar- 1
rfc. saparilla would do me some good, I began
taking It without the expectation of any lasting
ies helD. To my surprise and great joy J foiinq
.r: when I had taken three bottles that my lieais
,L1~ in# was returning, I kept on till I had
is taken three more. It Is now over a year and I
can hear perfectly well. I am troubled but
very little with the catarrh. I consider this a
)rc. remarkable case, ana coraiany recommend
f' Hood's Sarsaparilla
, to all who have catarrh." Hxbxax Hicks, SO
