the formation is identical with that

HAVE DARK HAIR
AND LOOK YOUNG
Nobody Can Tell When You Darken
Gray, Faded Hair with
SAGE Tea.

Grandmother kept her hair beauti-
fully darkened, glossy and abundant
with a brew of Sage Tea and Sui
phur. Whenever her hair fell out or
took on that dull, faded or streaked
appearance, this simple mixture was
applied with wonderful effect. By
asking at any drug store for "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy you
will get a large bottle of this old
time recipe, ready to use, for about
so cents. This simple mixture can be
depended upon to restore natural col
or and beauty to the hair and is
splendid for dandruff, dry, itchy
scalp and falling hair.
\ well-known downtown druggist
says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur, because it darkens so
naturally and evenly that nobody can
tell it has been applied-it's so easy
to use. too. You simply dampen a
sponge or soft brush and draw it
through your hair, taking one strand
at a time. BY morning the gray hair
disappears: after another application
or two. It is restored TO its natural
color and looks glossy. soft and abun-
dant
