APPLY SAGE TEA
A few APPLICATIONS of Sage Tea and
Sulphur brings back its vigor,
color, gloss and thickness.

C0m0n garden sage breWed into a
heavy tea with sulphur and alcohol
added, will turn graystreaked and
faded hair beautifully dark and lux
uriant, remove every bit of dandruff,
stop itching scalp and falling hair.
lust few applications will prove a
revelation If your hair is fading,
gray or dry, sfragly and thin. Mix
ing the Sage Tea and sulphur recipe
at home though, is troublesome An
easier way is to get the ready-to-use
tonic costing about 50 cents a large
bottle at drug stores, known as
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy" thus avoiding a lot of
muss.
While wispy gray, faded hair is
not sinful, we all desire to retain
our youthful appearance and at
trartiveness. BY darkening your
hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
no one can tell, because it does it so
naturally so evenly. You just
dampen a sponge or soft brush with
it and draw this through your hair,
taking one sm9'i strand at a time;
by morning al! gray hairs have dis
appeared, and, after another applica-
ton or two your hair becomes beau

Nov look here, mother, if you
think that man who is only little

around and look at his wife making

loved than l. .-...
Dick did not mention her name,
although am sure that he surmised

to forget her for this little while at

love, in the whole wide world.
