(TO RELIEVE CATARRHAL DEAFNESS. AND HEAD NOISES. Persons suffering from catarrhal deafness and head noises will be glad (o knowthat this distressing affliction can usually be 'successfully treated at home by an internal medicine that in many instances has. effected complete relief after other treatments have failed. Sufferers who could scarcely hear have had their hearing restored to such an extent that the tick of a watch was plainly audible seven or eight inches away from either ear. Therefore if you know of someone who is troubled, with head noiaes or catarrhal deafness, cut out this paragraph and hand it to them, and you may havo been the means of saving some poor sufferer porhaps from total deafness. The medicine can be prepared at homo, and is made as follows:— Secure from your c"hemist a loz. bot- ' tlo of. Parmint (Double Strength). Take this home, and add to it J pint of hot ■water and }lb. of crystal sugar; stir •until dissolved. Take one dessertspoonful four times a day. Parmint is used in this way not only to reduce by tonic action tlio inflammation and swelling in the Eustachian Tubes, and thus to equalise the air pressure on the drum, but to correct any excess of secrotions in tho middle ear, and ' the results it gives are nearly always quick and effective. _ Every person who has catarrh in any form should give this preparation a trial. r-Advt.'
