DARKFN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma's Sage Tea and Sui
phur Recipe and Nobody
Will Know.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for
restoring faded, gray hair to its nat
ural color dates back to grandmoth-
er's time. She used it to keep her
hair beautifully dark, glossy and at
tractive. Whenever her hair took on
that dull, faded or streaked appear
ance, this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for 50-cent bottle Of
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" you will get this famous old
preparation, improved by the addi-
ton of other ingredients, which can
be depended upon to restore natural
color and beauty to the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
saws it datkens the hair so natural
ly and evenly that nobody can tell
it has been applied. You simply
damped sponge or soft brush with
it and draw this through your hair,
taking one strand at a time. By
morning the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two it
becomes beautifully dark and CLOS
sy.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire more youth
full appearance. 1t is not intended
for the cure, mitigation or prevention
of disease. %
