There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. & Deafness is caused by an inflamed con: dition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is the result, Be and uniess the inflammation can be : ; taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine s out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
