Don't stay srayly Here's simple
 recipe that anybody can apply @ with a hair brush.

,The use of Sage and Sulphur for re. storing faded, gray hair to its natural color dates back to- grandmother 8 time. She used it to keep her hair beautifully dark, glossy and attrac- tive. Whenever her hair took on that dtilL, faded or streaked appearance, this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect, ..,
 But brewing at home ia nussy and out of date. Nowadays, by asking at any,. drug store for a sbottle Of ''Wyeth,s. Sage and Sulphur Com pound" you will get this famous old preparation, improved by the addition of other ingredients, which can" be- de- pended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair. ss,zsz :. { A well-known downtown druggist says it, darkens the hair so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You simply danpen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw
 this through your hair, taking one
 strand at a time. By morning the
 gray hair disappears, and after an 1 other application or two, it becomes
 beautifully dark and glossy. ..--
