There Is only one way 10 cure catarr hal deafness, and that is by a consti tutional remedy. 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 1m perfect hearing, and when It Is en tirely closed, Deafness Is the result. Unless the inflammation can be re duced and this tube restored to Its normal condition, hearing will be de stroyed forever. Many cases of deaf ness are caused by catarrh, which is an inflamed condition of the mucous aurfaces. Hall's Catarrh Cure acts thru the blood on the mucous sur faces of the system.
