Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Catarrhal Deafness,
and that Is by a constitutional remedy.
HALL'S CATARRH MEDICINE acts
through the Blood on the Mucous Surfaces
of the System. Catarrhal Deafness Is
caused by an Inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube Is Inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or Imperfect hearing, and
when It Is entirely closed. Deafness Is the
result. Unless the Inflammation can be reduced
and this tube restored to Its normal
condition, hearing may be destroyed
forever. Many cases of Deafness are
caused by Catarrh, which is an Inflamed
