Sage and Sulphur Compound" 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 a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
your hair, taking one small strand at
q time: by morning the gray hair dis
appears, and after another application
or two. your hair becomes beautifully
dark, thick and glossy.
