.LAD|ESI DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma's. Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and Nobody
will Know.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re,
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother
time. She used It TO keep her hal:
beautifully dark. glossy and attrac-
tive. whenever her hair took on that
dull, faded or streaked appearance,
this simple mixture was applied with
wonderful effect.
But brewing at home IS mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays. by asking al
any drug store for a bottle OF "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you
will get this famous old preparation,
improved BY the addition of other in
gradients, which can be depended up
on 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 q
sponge or soft brush with It and draw
this through your hair, taking one
strand at a time. BY morning ths
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two, IL becomes
beautifully dark and glossy.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound Is a delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire a more youthful
appearance. IL Is not intended foi
the cure, mitigation or prevention OF
disease.
