Peggy glanced up and caught Mrs.

softly. General Swallow looked up

You'll do nothing of the kind.

HAVE DARK HAIR
AND LOOK YOUNG
Don't stay gray! Nobody can tell
when you draken gray, faded
hair with Sage Tea and
Sulphur.

Grandmother kept her hair beau
tifully darkened, glossy and attrac-
tive with a brew of Sage Tea and
Sulphur. Whenever her hair took
on that dull, faded or streaked ap-
pearance, this simple mixture was
applied with wonderful effect. By
asking at any drug store for
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" you will get a large bottle
Of this old-time recipe, improved
by the addition Of other ingredients,
all ready to use, at very little cost.
This simple mixture can be de-
pended upon to restore natural color
and beauty to the hair.
A well-known downtown drug
gist 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 dts so easy to use,
too. You simply dampen a comb
or soft brush and draw it through
your hair, taking one strand at a
time. By morning the gray hair
disappears; after another applica-
ton 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 intended for the cure, mitiga-
ton or prevention of disease.-Adv.

But she quickly learned she
