Deafness Cannot be Cored
by loeal applications, as they cannot reach the
ameaxed portion of the ear. There is only ono
way to cure Ueatness, and that is by conntilu
t ioual remedies. Deafness is caosed by an in
flamed condition Of me mucous lining or ino
KuKtacbianTnbe. When this tube reUihnUanied.
you have a rumbling; sound or imuerfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is
Ihtj result, and unless the inflammation can bo
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
Dine castas out oi ten are csusea ny caiarrn,
which is nothing but an inflamed couditioa of
the mucous surfaces. '
