THE FIRST GRAY HAIR
IS THE sign OF AGE
Easy Way to Preserve Ma
tural Color of the Hair
and Make 1t Grow.

A harmless remedy, made from
common garden sage, quickly restores
gray hair to natural color The care
of the hair, to prevent it from losing
its color and lustre, is just as import
ant as to care for teeth to keep them
from discoloring. Why spend money
for cosmetics and creams to improve
the complexion, and yet neglect your
hair, when gray hair is even more
conspicuous and suggestive of age
than wrinkles or a poor complexion?
,Of the two, 1t is easier to preserve the
natural color and beauty of the hair
than 1t is to have good complexion.
All that is necessary is the occa-
sional use of Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy, a preparation
of common garden Sage and Sulphur,
combined with other valuable remed-
les for dry, harsh, faded hair. dand-
ruff, itching scalp and falling hair.
After few applications of this
simple, harmless remedy, your hair
will gradually be restored to it's nat
ural color in a short time the dan
druff will be removed, and your hair
will no longer come out but will start
to grow as Nature intended it should
Don't neglect your hair, for it goes
further than anything else to make
or mar your good looks. You can buy
this remedy at any drug store for
fifty cents bottle. and your drug
| gist will give your money back if you
are not satisfied after using. Pur-
chase a bottle today. You will never
regret it when you realize the differ
ence it will make in your appearance
