GRANDMOTHER
USED SAGE TEA
To Darken the Hair. and Restore
Gray and Faded Hair to It's
Natural Color

1t is easier to preserve the color
of the hair than to restore it, al
though it is possible to do both Our
grandmothers understood the secret.
They made a sage tea,' and their
dark, glossy hair long after middle
life was due to this fact Our moth
ers have gray hairs before they arc
fifty, but they are beginning to ap-
preciate the wisdom of our grand
mothers in using sage tea" for the1r
hair and are fast following suit:s@
The present generation has the adj
vantage of the past in that it can
get a ready-to-use2 preparation CALI
ed Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy. AS a scalp tonic and color
restorer this PREPARATION is vastly su-
perior to the ordinary sage tea"
made by our grandmother
The growth and beauty of the hair
depends on a healthy condition Of
the scalp. Weyth's Sage and Sulphur
Hair Remedy quickly kills the dand-
ruff germs which rob the hair Of its
life, color and lustre, makes the scalp
clean and healthy, gives the hair
strength, color and beauty, and
makes it grow.

= Hiohway Chemistry.

The Oregon Agricultural college at
Corvallis, Ore, is boasting Of the first
course in highway chemistry that has
ever been offered in any college in
the world. Professor John Fulton OF
the chemistry department has taken
this step as a result of the increased
demand for good roads. The course
includes both physical and chemical
tests of tars, bituminous products, as
phalts and all mixtures such as sands,
gravels, rocks and other ingredients of
the modern highway. Concrete testing
and tests of the chemical changes in
all these substances by exposure and
weather will form an important part
OF the work, as well as the chemical
study of surface protection, such as
viscous oils.
