(katarrhal Deafness Cannot lk' Cured
hy local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There i.s only one way to cure catar
rhal deafness, and that ls by a consti
tutional remedy. Catarrhal deafness
ls caused by an Inflamed condition of
the mucous lining of the Eustachian
tube. When this tube is inflamed you
have ti rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when lt is entirely
closed, deafness ls the result. Unless
the inflammation can be reduced and
this tube restored to Its normal con
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever. Many cases of deafness are
caused hy catarrh, which is an In
flamed condition of tho mucous sur
faces. Hall's Catarrh Cure acts
through the blood on the mucous sur
fil?es ol' the system.
