Sage Tea Darkens Hair to
 Any Shade.
Don't stay Gray! Here's an Old
 Time Recipe That Anybody

Don't stay Gray! Here's an Old-
 Time Recipe That Anybody
 can Apply.
 The use of Sage and Sulphur for restoring faded, gray hair to it's nat ural color dates back to grandm others lime. She used it to keep her hair beautifully dark, glossy and abun- liant. Whenever her hair fell out or ,ook on that dull. faded or streaked appearance, this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect.
 But brewing at home is mussy and ,ut-of- date. Nowadays, by asking at inv drug store for 50 cent bottle of avUveth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy" you will get this famous old recipe which can be depended s,non to restore natural color and beauty to the hair and is splendid for dandruff. dry, feverish. itchy scalp and falling hair.
 A well-known downtown druggist savs it darkens the hair so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it nas been applied. You simply damp n sponge or soft brush with it and araw this through your hair taking ,ne strand at time. By morning the rray hair disappears, and after ar1- other application or two, it becomes pea utifully dark. glossy. soft and ft1andant. .--.------
