Deafness is caused by an inflamed con dition of the mucous lining of the Eus tachian 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 eass out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an in flamed condition of the mucous sur faces.

I'he Shak ers never have indigestion. This is partly owing to their simple mode of life, partly to the wonderful prnperities of Shaker Digestive Cordial. Indiges tion is caused by the stomach glands not supplying enough digestive juice. Shaker Digestive Cordial supplies what's wanting. Shaker Digestive Cordial in vigorates the stomach and all its glands so that after awhile they don't need help. As evidence of the honesty of Shaker Dlgestivo Cordial, the formula is printed on every bottle. Sold by druggiats, price 10 centa to $1.00 per bot tle. Ttiniimil Iown a Miuft.
