Whenever her hair fell out or took on that dull, faded or streaked appearance, this simple mixture was applied with wonder ful effect. By asking at any drug store for "Wyeth’s Sage and Sul phur Hair Remedy,” you will get a largo bottle of this old-time rec ipe, ready to use, for about 50 cents. This simple mixture can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair and is splendid for dandruff, dry, itchy scalp and falling hair.
