COMB SAGE TEA IN
FADED OR GRAY HAIR
Look Young! Common Garden
Sage and Sulphur Darkens
So Naturally Nobody
Can Tell

Grandmother kept her hair beautiful
ly darkened, glossy and attractive with
brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur. When
ever her hair took on that dull, faded or
streaked appearance, this simple mix
ture was applied with wonderful effect.
By asking at any drug store for
"Wyeth s Sage and Sulphur Com
pound,' you will get a large bottle of
this old-time recipe, improved by the
addition of other ingredients, all ready
to use, for about 80 cents, This simple
mixture can be depended upon to restore
natural color and beauty to the hair
A well-knOwn downtown druggist says
everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound now because it darkens
so naturally and evenly that nobody can
tell it has been applied-it's 5 so easy to
use, too. You simply dampen comb or
soft brush and draw it through your
hair, taking one strand at a time. By
morning the gray hair disappears; after
another application or two, it is restored
to its natural color and looks glossy,
soft and beautiful. This preparation is
delightful toilet requisite 1t is not
intended for the cure, mitigation or pre-
vention of disease.
