Deafness Cannot Be Cured by beat applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. 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 Eu-stachian Tube. When this tube is in-flamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it Is en-tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to Its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed for-ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an in-flamed condition of the rnueuous sur-face.

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 circular. free.
