Nowadays, though, wo don't have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing at home. All drug stores sell th| ready-to-use product called "Wy- J eth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem- j edy” for about 30 cents a bottle, it « Is the most popular because no- j body can discov r it has been ap- ( plied. Simply dampen a soft j brush or sponge with “Wyeth's Sage j and Sulphur’ and draw this through j s our hair, taking one small Strand j at a time. Do this to-night, and by j morning the gray hair disappear- ? and after another application it is \ restored to its natural color. J What delights the ladies with j Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is that, j besides beautifully darkening the j hair, they say it produces that soft < luster and appearance of abundance j which is so attractive, besides pro- t vents dandruff, itching scalp and j Tolling hair.
