The old idea OF using sage for darlEen-
ing the hair is again coming in vogue.
Our grandmothers used 70 have dark,
glossy hair at the age of seventy-five.
while our mothers have white hair before
they are fifty. Our grandmotherS used
to make sage tea" and apply IL to
their hair. The tea made their hair soft
and glossy. and gradually restored the
natural color.
One objection 20 using such a prepare
ton was the trouble OF making II. espe-
cially as 1t had to be made every two or
three days on account OF souring
quickly. This objection has been over
come, and by asking almost any first

superior preparation Of sage. with admix-
ture OF sulphur. another valuable REM
edy for hair and scalp troubles. Daily
use Of this preparation will not only
quickly restore the color OF the hair. but
viii also stop the hair from falling out
and make It grow.
