Dtifnnu Cannot Be Cured by lix-al application as they cannot rt-arh the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to enre deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Dnafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous liuiug of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect bearing, and when it ia eutirely closed, deaf ness is the result, aud unless the in flammation can be taken oat and this tuba restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases ont of 10 are caused by Catarrh, which ia nothing but an in flamed condition of the mucous sur farea.
