BElPRETTY! TURN
GRAY HAIR DARK
Try Grandrnother's old Favor
lite Recipe of Sage Tea
and Sulphur.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea, and Sulphur, properly COM
pounded, brings back the natural
color and lustre to the hair when
faded, streaked or gray. Years ago
the only way to get this mixture was
to make it at home, which is mussy
and troublesome. Nowadays, by ask
ing at any drug store for "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you
will get large bottle Of this famous
old recipe, improved by the addition
Of other ingredients, for about so
cents.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen sponge
or, soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two, your hair
becomes beautifully dark, glossy and
attractive.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire dark hair and
a youthful appearance. 1t is not in
tended for the cure, mitigation or
prevention Of disease.
