SAGE TEA KEEPS
YOUR HAIR DARK
It's Grandmother's recipe to
bring back color, youth
fitness and lllstre-
Everybody is using
it again.

Gray hair, however handsome, denotes
advancing age. We all know the advan-
tsges Of youthful appearance. Your
hair is your charm. It makes or mars
the face. When it fades, turns gray and
looks streaked, just a few applications
OF Sage Tea and Sulphur enhances its ap-
pearance hundred-fold.
Don't stay gray Look young! Either
prepare the recipe at home or get from
any drug store a 50-cent bottle of
Nyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound"
which is merely the old-time recipe i'm
proved BY the addition of other ingredi-
ents. Thousands of folks recommend this
ready-to-use preparation, because it
dsrkens the hair beautifully, besides, no
one can possibly tell, as it darkens so
naturally and evenly. You moisten
sponge or soft brush with it, drawing this
through the hair, taking one small strand
at a time. By morning the gray hair
disappears; after another application or
two, its natural color is restored and it
becomes thick, glossy and lustrous, and
you appear years younger.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur COMPOUND
IS delightful toilet requisite. It is not
intended for the cure, mitigation or pre-
vention of disease.

CALOMEL MAKES
YOU SICK, UGH!
"DODSON'S LIVER TONE" BET
TER THAN CALOMEL AND CAN
NOT SALIVATE.

Calomel loses you a day! You know
what calomel is. It's mercury; quick
silver. Calomel is dangerous. II
crashes into sour bile like dynamite,
cramping and sickening you. Calomel
attacks the bones and should never be
put into your system.
When you feel bilious, sluggish,
constipated and all knocked out and
believe you need dose Of dangerous
calomel just remember that your
druggist sells for so cents a large
bottle Of Dodson's Liver Tone, which
is entirely vegetable and pleasant to
take and is Perfect substitute for
calomel. It is guaranteed to start
your liver without stirring you up in
side, and can not salivate.
Don't take calomel! 1t makes YOU
sick the next day; it loses you a days
work. Dodson's Liver Tone straight
ems you right up and you feel great.
Give it to the children because it is
perfectly harmless and doesn't grippe.
