GRAY HAIR BECOMES

recipe of Sage and Sulphur
and nobody will know.

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea
and Sulphur, properly compounded,
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 it
at home, which is mussy and trouble

Nowadays we simply ask at any drug
store for 'Wyeth's Sage and Sui phur
Hair Remedy" You will get large

uses this old, famous recipe, because no
one can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair. as it does it so naturally and
evenly. You dampen sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
your hair, taking one small strand at g
time; by morning the gray hair disap-
pears, and after another application or
two, your hair becomes beautifully dark,
thick and glossy and you look years
younger.

veloping her form. This was about 9
