COMB SAGE TEA IN
FADED OR GRAY HAIR
Look young! Common garden Sage
and Sulphur darkens so naturally
nobody can tell.

Grandmother kept her hair beauti-
fully darkened, glossy and attractive
with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Whenever her hair took on that dull,
faded or streaked appearance. this
simple mixture was applied with won
derfuI effect. BY asking at any drug
store for 'FWyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound you will get a large bottle
of this old-time recipe, improved 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 weIl-known downtown druggist
says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound now because it
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 a time. By morning the
gray hair disappears; after another
application or two. it is restored to its
natural color and looks glossy, soft
and eautiful.-Advertise
