GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA
TO DARKEN HER GRAY HAIR
She Made Up a Mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur to Bring Back Color
Gloss, Thickness.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed. brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make 1t at home, which is
mussy and troublesome. Nowadays,
by asking at any store for "Wyetfs
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy" you
will get large bottle of this famous
old recipe for about so cents
Don't stay gray Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does 1t so naturally
and evenly. You dampen sponge or
soft. brush with 1t and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time; by morning the gray
nair disappears, and after another ap-
pllcatjon or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy. ADV
