AN OLD RECIPE 7] TO DARKEN HAIR Sage Tea and Sulphur Turn* Gray, Faded Hair Dark and Glossy Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compound¬ ed, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make tt at home, which is mussy and troublesome. Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for “Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound.” You will get a large bot¬ b? tle of this old-time recipe improved the addition of other ingredients, ” af very little cost. Everybody uses thin preparation now, because no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and even¬ ly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush witn it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, and after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy and you look years younger,
