To Relieve Catarrh,
Catarrhal Deafness
And Head Noises
Person suffering from catarrhal deaf
ness, or who are growing hard of
hearing and have head noise will be glad
to know that thi distressing affliction
can usually be sucessfully treated at
home by an internal medicine that in many
instances has effected complete relief after
other treatments have failed. Sufferers
who could scarcely bear have had their
hearing restored to such an extent that
the tick of a watch was plainly audiblo
seven -or eight inches away from either
ear; Therefore, if you know of someone
who is troubled with head noises nr
atarrhal deafness, cut out thi formula
and hand it to them and you may have
been th mean of saving some poor suf
ferer perhaps from toul deafness. The
prescription can be prepared at home and
is made as follows:
Secure from your druggist 1 oz. Par
mint i Double Strength.) Take thi home
and add to it pint of hot water and a
little granulated sugar; stir until dissolved.
Take one tables poonful four times a dsy.
Parmint is used in this way not only
to reduce by tonie action tha inflamma
tion anqawelllng in the Eustachian Tube,
and thus to equalise the air pressure on
tha drum, but to correct any excess of
secretions in tha mddle ear, and the re
sults it gives are nearly always quick and
affective. .
Every person who has catarrh in any
form, or distressing rumbling, hissing
sounds in their cars, should give, thi re
eip a trial.

The movement will be backed by
