SAGE AND SULPHUR
DARKENS GRAY. HAIR
It's Grandmother's Recipe to
Restore Color, Gloss
and Attractiveness.

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. Years ago the only way to get this
mixture was to make it at home. which
is mussy and troublesome. Nowadays, by
asking at any drug store for "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will
get a large bottle of this famous old
recipe, improved by the addition of other
ingredients, 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 a
time; by morning the gray hair dis
appears, and after another application
or two, your hair becomes .cautifully
dark, glossy and attractive.
