few FOLKS Have
CRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies are Using
Recipe Of Sage Tea and Sulphur

Hair that loses its color and lustre.
or when it fades, turns gray, dull and
lifeless. is caused by a lack of sui
phur in the hair. Our grandmother
made up a mixture Of Sage Tea and
Sulphur to keep her locks dark and
beautiful, and thousands of women
and men who value that even color.
that beautiful dark shade Of hair
which is SO attractive. use only this
old time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition Of 9TH
er ingredients by asking at any drug
store for a bottle of "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound" which dark
ems 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 morning
the gray hair disappears: but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after a few applications, it also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives it
an appearance of abundance.-Adv.

Don't be fooled by the Boston Posts
league of nations ballot. It says: do
you wish the United States to enter a
league Of nations to preserve peace?''
OF course you do. everybody does.
The Post might just as we'll ask: do
you wish to preserve your health ~
The Post is not the only newspaper
pushing this scheme, however. The
results will make fine capital for all
the violently pro- Wilson organs who
will thus be able again to cloud the
