Joicey Williams, the well-krown
actress. who was recently playing at
the Imperial Theater in st. Louis,
made the following statement about
gray hair and how to darken it:
Anyone can prepare a simple
mixture at home that will darken
gray, streaked or faded hair, and
make it soft and glossy. To a half
pint of water add l ounce of bay
rum, a small box Of Barbo Com

rot color the scalp, is not sticky or
greasy and does not rub off.
