TORN HAIR DARK. - .. WITH SAGE TEA If Mixed With Sulphur It Darkens So Naturally Nobody Can Tell. The old-time mixture of Sage Tea dand Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked and faded hair is grami- mother’s recipe, and folks are again using it to keep- their hair ‘a good, éven color, which is quite sensible, as we are living in an age when a youth- ful appearance is of the gfeatest ad- vantage. Nowadays, though, we don’t have the troublesome task of gathering the gage and the mussy mixing at home. All drug stores sell the ready-to-use product, improved by the addition of other ingredients, called “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur. Compound” for about 50 cents a bottle. It is very popular because nobody can discover it has been applied. Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; but-what delights -the ladies with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound, is ‘that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applications, it also produces that soft lustre and ap- pearance of abundance which is so attractive. 'This ready-to-use prepa- ration is a delightful toilet requisite for those who desire a more youthful appearance. It is not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of digease. .
