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

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 SIM
pie mixture was applied with wonder
full effect By asking at any drug store
for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" you will get large bottle of
this old-time recipe, improved by the
addition of other ingredients, all ready
to use, at very little cost. This sim
pie mixture can be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty to the
hair
Well-known druggists say everybody
uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound now because it darkens so natur-
ally and evenly that nobody can tell it
has been applied-it's 50 easy to use,
too. You simply dampcn a comb or
soft brush and draw it through your
hair, taking one strand at a time BY
morning the gray hair disappears; af-
ter another application or two, it is re-
stored to its natural color and looks
glossy, soft and beautiful.
