Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by focal application*. as they ctnsot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure catarrhal deafness,
and that is by a constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an inr
flamed condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube Is
inflamed you have a rAntling Bound or Im-
perfect hearing, and when It is entirely
closed. Deafness Is the result. Unless the
inflammation can be reduced and this tub£
restored to its normal condition, hearing
will -be destroyed forever. Many cases of
deafness are caused by catarrh. Arhich Is
an Inflamed condition of the mucous sur-
faces. Hall's Catarrh Medicine .acts thru
the blood on the mucous surfaces of the
system.
We will give One Hundred Do’lara for
any case of Catarrhal Deafness that cannot
be cured by Hall's Catarrh Medicine. Cir-

Denton and Denton county will
surely go over the top in the sale
of bonds of the Third Liberty loan.
Every pa^oo in town and county
will think of this with pride.
The committees in charge, speak-
ing for the irovernment. for the
boys in the tight, for the boys who
are going to war, for the patriots
of the country, desire to express
their-appreciatlon and sincere thanks
to all who have assisted in th-
work, and. especially to thank the
merchants of. Denton and Denton
county who have so liberally con-
tributed to the success of the loan
by their donations in advertising
space and giving publicity to the
needs of the country m this hour
of trial. It is unnecessary to enu-
merate these patriots by name, as
the press of the county has given
the names. To each and everyone
personally and in the name of the
mothers and fathers of the men
who must win this war. we again
extend thanks.
Verv respectfully,
