darkens the hair SO naturally, so
evenly, that nobody can possibly tell
it has been applied. You just dampen
a sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at a time. BY morn
ing the gray hair disappears; but
what delights the ladies with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound is that,
besides beautifully darkening the
hair after a few applications. it also
brings back the gloss and lustre and
gives it an appearance of abundance.
