of advancing age. Gray hair, however
handsome it may be, makes a person
look old. We all know the advantages
Of being young. Aside from the good
impression a youthful appearance makes
on others, simply knowing that you are
"looking fit" gives one courage TO
undertake and accomplish things. SO
why suffer the handicap of looking old
on account of gray hairs, when simple
remedy will give your hair youthful
color and beauty in a few days time?
Most people know that common gar
den sage acts as color restorer and
seal p tonic as well. Our grandmothers
used Sage Tea" for keeping their
hair dark, soft and luxuriant. In
