She used it to keen her hair beautifully
dark Qlossy and attractive Whenever

turc was applied with wonderful effect
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date Nowadays, by asking Mt
any drug store for bottle Of "Wycth :
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will
get this famous old preparation, improved
by the addition Of other ingredients, which
can be depended upon to restore nat
ural color and beauty to the halr
A wcll-known downtown druggist says
it darkens the hair 50 naturally and evenly
that nobody can tell it has been applied
You simply dampen q sponge or soft
brush with il and draw this through your
hair, taking one strand ut time. BY
morning the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two, it
becomes beautifully dark and glossy
