HAVE DARK HAIR
and LOOK YOUNG
Nobody Can Tell When You
Darken Gray, Faded Hair
With Sage Tea.

Grandmother kept her hair beautifully
darkened, glossy and attractive with
brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur. When
ever her hair took on that dull, faded or
streaked appearance, this simple mixture
was applied with wonderful effect. BY
asking at any drug store for Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound" " you will get a
large bottle of this old-time recipe, i'm
proved by the addition of other ingredients
all ready to use, at very little cost. This
simple mixture can be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty to the
hair
A well-known downtown druggist says
everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound now because il darkens so
naturally and evenly that nobody can tell
it has been applied--it's so easy TO use,
too. You simply dampen a comb or soft
brush and draw it through your hair,
taking one strand at time. By morning
the gray hair disappears; after another
application or two. II rs restored to ITS
natural color and looks glossy, soft and
beautiful.
