Here’s Grandmother’s Recipe tc
Darken and Beautify
Faded Hair.
Th-¢ beautiful, even shade of dark,
glossy hair can only be had by brew
ing a mixture of Sage Tea and Sul
phur. Your hair is your charm. It
makes or mars the face. When it
fades, turns gray or streaked, just an
application or two of Sage and Sul
phur enhances its appearance a hun
dredfold.
Don’'t bother to prepare the mix
ture; you can get this famous old
recipe improved by the addition of
other ingredients at a small cost, all
ready for use. It i 3 called Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound. This can
always be depended upon to bring
back the natural color and lustre of
your hair.
Everybody uses “Wyeth’s” Sage and
Sulphur Compound now because it
darkens so naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell it has been applied.
You simply dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
the hair, taking one small strand at a
time; by morning the gray hair has
disappeared, and after another appli
cation it becomes beautifully dark and
appears glossy and lustrous. This
ready-to-use preparation ig a delight
ful toilet requisite for those who de
gire dark hair and a youthful appear
ance. 1t is not intended for the cure,
mitigation or prevention of disease.

There was never a time when the szec
rifices and the help of women were more
appreciated than at the present time.
Women should learn war-nursing and
nursing at home. There is no better
way than to study the new edition of the
“Common Sense Medical Adviser ”
with chapters on First Aid, Bandaging,
Anatomy, Hygiene, care of the Sick,
Diseases of Women, Mother and Babe, the
Marriage Relation—to be had at some
drug-stores or send 50c. to* Publisher, 654
Washington Street, Buffalo, N. Y.
If a woman suffers from weak back,
nervousness or dizziness—if pains afflict
her, the best tonic and corrective is ‘one
made up of native herbs and made with
out alcohol, which makes weak women
strong and sick women well. It is the
prescription of Dr. Pierce, used by him
in active practice many years and now
sold by almost every druggist in the
land, in liquid or in tablets. Send Dr.
Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y., 10c. for trial pkg.
Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets are also best
for liver and bowel trouble.
Tryon, Okla.—"l am pleased to have the
chance to tell that Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescrip
tion did wonders for me. Last year during
expectancy I was so poorly and was getting so
weak that I couldn’t do my housework until a
friend told me of ‘Favorite Prescription.” After
taking four bottles I was so much better I didn’t
feel like the same person. Our baby is now seven
months old and although he had the whooping
cough last winter he weighs nineteen pounds,
“Will advise all expectant mothers to use
‘Favorite Prescription’ for it did so much for me
I am sure it will for them.”
