Deafness results from an inflamed mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is blocked, there is a rumbling and partial hearing loss. if inflammation cannot be removed and the tube restored, hearing may be destroyed. Bine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, an inflamed mucous membrane. We offer One Hundred Dollars for any case of deafness caused by catarrh that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure.
