ING RECIPE OF SAGE TEA
AND SULPHUR.

Hair that loses its color and lustre.
or when II fades. turns gray, dull and
lifeless. Is caused by a lack Of sui
phur in the hair. Our grandmother
made up a mixture Of Sage Tea and
Sulphur to keep her locks dark and
beautiful, and thousands Of women
and men who value that even color.
that beautiful dark shade OF hair
which is so attractive, use only this
old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture by asking at any drug store for
a 50-cent bottle Of "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound" which dark
ems the hair so naturally, so evenly
that nobody can possibly tell It has
been applied. Besides, It takes off
jandruff. stops scalp itching and fall
ing hahr. You Just dampen a sponge
or soft brush with II and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. BY morning the
gray hair disappears; but what Ge-
lights the ladies with wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur is that, besides beauti-
fully darkening the hair after a few
applications. It also brings back the
gloss and lustre and gives II an ap-
pearance OF abundance.
