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 dandruft, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it ut home, which is
mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for ''Wyeth's Sage and Sui

body uses this old. famous recipe. be-
cause no one can possibly tell that
you darkened your hair, as it does it
SO naturally and evenly. You dampen
a sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two, your
iair becomes beautifully dark, thick
and glossy and you look years younger.
