TO DARkEN HAIR
Common garden Sage and Sulphur

gray hair dark and youth
full at once.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed. brings back the natural color and
Iustre to the hair when faded, streak
ed or gray Years ago the only way
TO get this mixture w&s TO make it az
home, which Is mussy and trouble
some.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeths Sage and
sulphur Compound" You viii get a
large bottle Of this nld-time recipe
improved by the addition Of other In
gradients, at very little cost. Every
body uses this preparation now, be-
cause no one can possibly tell that
YOU darkened your hair, as it does
it so naturally and evenly. You
dampen a sponge or soft brush with
it and draw this through your hair,
taking one small strand at time;
by morning the gray hair disappears,
and after another application or two,
your hair becomes beautifully dark,
thick and glossy and you look years
younger
