TURN HAIR DARK
WITH SAGE TEA
If Mixed with Sulphur 1t
Darkens SO Naturally
Nobody Can Tell.

The old-time mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening gray,
streaked and faded hair is grand
mothers recipe, and folks are again
using it to keep their hair good,
even color, which is quite sensible, as
we are living in an age when youth
full appearance is of the greatest ad-
vantage.
Nowadays, though, we don't have
the troublesome task of gathering the
sage and the mussy mixing at home.
All drug stores sell the ready-to-use
product, improved by the addition Of
other ingredients, called "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" for
about so cents bottle. 1t is very
popular because nobody can discover
1t has been applied. Simply moisten
your comb or soft brush with 1t and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after few applications, it also pro-
duces that soft lustre and appearance
of abundance which is so attractive.
This ready-to-use preparation is de-
lightful toilet requisite for those who
desire more youthful appearance. 1t
is not intended for the cure, mitigation
or prevention Of disease.
