have been used for hair and scalp
troubles. Almost everyone knows the
value of such a combination for keep
ing the hair a good even color, for
curing dandruff, itching scalp and
falling hair, and for promoting the
growth of the hair, Years ago the
only way to get a Hair Tonic of this
kind was to make 1t in the home,
which was trouble some and not al
ways satisfactory. Nowadays, almost
any up-to-date druggist can supply
his patrons with ready-to- use
product, skillfully prepared in per-
fectly equipped laboratories.
An ideal preparation of this sort Is
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy, in which Sage and Sulphur
are combined with other valuable
remedies for scalp troubles and thin,
weak hair that is losing its color or
coming out. After using this remedy
for a few days, you will notice the
color gradually coming back. your
scalp will feel better, the dandrun
will soon be gone. and in less than a
months time there will be wonder
full difference in your hair.
Don't neglect your hair II 1t is full
Of dandruff, losing its color or COM
ing out Get a fifty cent bottle Of
wyeth's Sage and Sulphur from your
druggist, and see what a few days
treatment will do for,you. All drug
gists sell 1t. under guarantee that
