‘Whenever her hair took on that dull,
faded or streaked appearance, this sim
ple mixture was applied with wonder
ful effect. By asking at any drug
store for “Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound,” you will get a large bot

by the addtflg‘on of othér ingredients, all
ready to use, at very little cost. This
simple mixture can be depended upom
to restore natural color and beauty to
* - hair.
\ well-known downtown druggist
.vs everybody uses Wyeth’'s Sage and
Sulphur. Compound now because it
darkens so naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell it has been applied—-
it's so casy 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
gray hair disappears; after another
application or two, it is restored to its
natural color and looks glossy, soft
and beautiful. This preparation is a
delightful toilet requisite. It is not in
