Nobody Can Tell When You
Darken Gray, Faded Hair
’ With Sage Tea.
Grandmother kept her hair
beautifully darkened, gH%*k 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
derful effect. By asking at any
drug store for Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound, you will get a
large bottle of this old time reci
pe, improved by the addition of
other ingredients, all ready to
use, at very little cost. This sim
ple mixture can be depended upon
to restore natural color and beau
, ty to the hair.
Well known druggists say
everybody uses Wyeth’s Sage and
Sulphur Componud now because
It darkens so naturally and even
ly 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 griy hair
disappears; after another appli
cation or two, it is restored to
its natural color and looks glossy,
soft and beautiful.—(Adv.)
