GRANDMA USED SAGE
TEA TO DARKEN HA|R
She made up a mixture Of Sage Tea
and Sulphur to bring back color,
ninss thickness

Common garden sage, hreWed into a
heavy tea with sulphur and alcohol
added, will tHn gray, streaked and
faded hair beautifully dark and lnyur-
liant, remove every bit OF dandruff,
stop scalp itching and falling hair,
Just a few applications will prove a
revelation if your hair is fading, gray
or dry, scraggy and thiE. Mixing the
Sage Tea and sulphur recipe al home,
though, is troublesome. An easier way
is TO get the ready-to-use tonic, cost
ing about so cents large bottle at
drug stores, known as "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound thus avoid
ing a lot of muss.
While wispy, gray, faded hair is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractive
ness. By darkening your hair with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur, no one
can tell, because it does it SO natur-
ally, so evenly. You just dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at time; by morning
all gray hairs have disappeared, and,
after another application or two. your
hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy,
soft and luxuriant.
