F. A. WERNIAN, OF BALTIMORE, 8AYS:
Baltimore, m<i , March 30, 1901.
GentUmtn 5 ? Hein? entirely cured of deafness, thanks to your treatment, 1 will now give you
? full history of tuy case, to be used at your discretion.
About five years ago my light car begau to siug, and tie's kept on getting worse, until I lost
my hearing in this ear entirely.
I underwent a treatment for catarrh, for three months, without any success, consulted a num
ber of physician*, among others, the most eminent car specialist of this city, who told me thai
only an operation could help me, and even that only temporarily, that the head noises would
then cease, but the hearing in the affected ear would be lost forever.
I then saw your advertisement accidentally in a New Y01k paper, and ordered your ti cat
mint. After I had used it only a few davs according to your directions, the uoises ceased, and
to-day, after five weeks, my hearing in the diseased car bus been entirely restored. I thank you
beat lily and beg to remain Very truly yours,
v. A. WBRMAN, 730 SJ. Broadway, Baltimore, Md.
