There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. 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,and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition hearing wiil be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are coused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
