BE PRETTY!
TURN GRAY
HAIR DARK
Look young. Nobody can tell if you
use Grandmother's simple recipe
of Sage Tea and Sulphur.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur. properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color, and
lustre to the hair when faded, streak
ed or gray; also ends dandruff, Itch
ing scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which is
mussy and troublesome. Nowadays,
by asking at any drug store for
''Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound you will get a 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 it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen q sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another p
pliction or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy

All of the farmers about Benicia firmly
believed that their lands had been pol

also found that the failure Of vegetation
to thrive in the vicinity had nothing to
do with the smelter. but was due largely
to a great pest of insects. The fruit
