GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies Are Using Re
cipe of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Huir that loses its color and lustr*.
or when it fades, turns gray and life
less, is caused by a lack of sulphur in
the hair. Our grandmother made up
a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to
keep her locks dark and beautiful, and
thousands of women and women who
value that even color, that beautiful
dark shade of hair which is so at
tractive, use. only this old-time re
cipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mi.<-
ture by asking at any drug store for
a 50 cent bottle of "Wyeth’s Sage anl
Sulphur Hair Remedy,” which dark
ens the hair so naturally, so evenly,
that nobody can possibly tell it has
been applied. Besides, it takes off
dandruff, stops scalp itching and fall
ing hair. You just dampen a sponge
or soft brush, taking one small strand
at a time. By morning the gray hair
disappears; but what delights the la
dies with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur
Is that, besides beautifully tarkening
the hair after a few applications, i’
also brings back the gloss and !ust"e
