SAGE FOR DARKENING THE
HAIR.

There is nothing new about the idea OF
using sage for restoring the color OF the
hair. Our great-grandmothers kept their
locks soft dark and glossy by using a
sage tea" Whenever their hair fell out
or took on a dull, faded or streaked ap-
pearance, they made brew of sage
leaves and applied it to their hair with
wonderfully beneficial effect, Nowadays
we don't have to resort to the old-time,
tlresome method of gathering the herbs
and making the brew. This Is done by
Bkillful chemists better than We could do
1t ourselves, and all we have to do is to
call for the ready made product. Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur, containing sage In the
proper strength, with the addition of
Sulphur, another old-time scalp remedy
This preparation is sold by all first-class
druggists for Soc. and $100 a bottle, or
is sent direct by the Wyeth Chemical
Company, "a Cortlandt ST., New AYork
