LADIES!
DARKEN YOUR
GRAY HAIR
Look years younger! Use Grand
mothers recipe of Sage Tea
and Sulphur and nobody
will know.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother's
time. She used it to keep her hair
beautifully dark. glossy and attractive.
Whenever her hair took on that dull
faded or streaked appearance. this
simple mixture was applied with won
derful effect
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays. by asking at
any drug store for a bottle of IVY
eth's Sage and sulphur Compound"
you will get this famous old prepara-
ton, improved by the addition of 9TH
er ingredients, which can be depended
upon to restore natural color and
beauty to the hair
A well-known downtown druggist
says il darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell il has
been applied. You simply dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this thru your hair. taking one strand
at a time. BY morning the gray hair
disappears. and after another applica-
zion or two. it becomes beautifully
dark and glossy.-Advertis lent.
