HAVE DARK HAIR
AND LOOK YOUNG
Nobody Can Tell When You Darken
Gray, Faded Hair With
Sage Tea.

Granddaughter kept her hair beauti-
fully darkened, glossy and attractive
with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Whenever her hair took on that dull
faded or streaked appearance, this
simple mixture was applied with Won
derful effect. By asking at any drug
store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound" you will get large bot
tie of this old-time recipe, improved
by the addition of other ingredients,
all ready to use, for about so cents.
This simple mixture can be depended
upon to restore natural color and beau
ty to the hair.
A we'll known downtown druggist
says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound now because it
darkens so naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell it has been applied
it's so easy to use, too. You simply
dampen a comb or soft brush and
oraw it through your hair, taking one
strand at a time. By morning the
gray hair disappears; after another
application or two, it is restored to
its natural color and looks glossy. soft
and beautiful. This preparation is a
delightful toilet requisite. 1t is not
for the cure, mitigation or
prevention of disease. 6l

vere built last year by the ready
