NO MORE GRAY HAIR

1t is easier to preserve the color Of the
hair than to restore it, although il is
possible to do both. Our grandmothers
understood the secret. They made and
used a sage tea" and their dark, glossy
hair long after middle life was due to this
fact. Our mothers havc gray hairs be-
fore they are fifty, but they are begin
ming to appreciate the wisdom Of orr
grandmothers in using sage tea" for
their hair, and are fast following suit.
The present generation has the advan-
tage Of the past in that it can get .
ready to use preparation called Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur. AS a scalp tonic and
color restorer, this preparation is vastly
superior to the ordinary sage tea" made
by our grandmothers, and it can be
bought for so cents and 81 a bottle at
almost any frst-class drug store, or win
