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.)
