SAGE TEA BEAUT|F|ES
AND DARKENS HAIR
Don't Stay Gray! 1t Darkens
So Naturally that No
body can Tell.

You can turn gray, faded hair beau
tifully dark and lustrous almost over
night if you'll get 50cent bottle OF
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound"
at any drug store. Millions of bottles of
this old famous Sage Tea Recipe, i'm
proved by the addition of other ingredl-
ents, are sold annually says a we'll
known druggist here, because it darkens
the hair so naturally and evenly that no
one can tell it has been applied.
Those whose hair is turning gray or
becoming faded have a surprise awaiting
them, because after one or two applica-
lions the gray hair vanishes and your
locks become luxuriantly dark and beau
tiful.
This is the age of youth. Gray-haired,
unattractive folks aren't wanted around,
SO get busy with Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound tonight and you'll be de-
lighted with your dark, handsome hair
and your youthful appearance within a
few days.
This preparation is toilet requisite
and is not intended for the cure, mitiga-
tion or prevention of disease.

have lost less time, have been

stricter than ever before. The reason
is this: We want the best work, and
