To Darker The Hair and Restore

1t is easier to preserve the color Of
the hair than to restore it, although
it is POSSIBLE to do both. Our grand
mothers understood the secret. They
made a sage tea," and their dark,
glossy hair long after middle life was
due to this wact. Our mothers become
gray before they are fifty, but they
are beginning to appreciate the wis
dom of our grandmothers in using
sage tea" for their hair and are fast
following suit.
The present generation has the adj
vantage of the past in that it can get
a ready-to-use preparation called
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair REM
edy. AS a scalp tonic and color re-
storer this preparation is vastly SUI
perior to the ordinary sage tea
made by our "randmothers.
The growth and beauty of the hair
depends on a healthy condition of the
scalp Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy quickly kills the dandruff
germs which rob the hair of it's life,
color and lustre, makes the scalp
clean and healthy, gives the hair
strength. color and beauty, and makes
