There is only one way to cure 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 humed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is en tirely closed, deafness is tho result, and unless the inflammation can be ta ken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be de stroyed forever; nine cases out of ton are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of tho mu cous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by ca tarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars: free. F. J.
