Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and trou- blesome. EASTER Last Easter was a martial Easter. (Glothes Nowadays. we simply ask &t drug -store for “Wyeth's Sage :’é Sulphur Compound.” n large bottle of this. old time recipe improved by the addition of other in- Ered\ents for about 50 cents. Every- ody uses thig preparation now, be- eause ‘no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and one small strand at a time; by morn- ing the tfiny hair dxuppears, and after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy and you look years young- er. Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Com- pound is a delightful toilet requisite. [t is not intended for the cure, mitiga- | draw this through your hair, taking | tion or prevention of disease. Brass buttons and braid, khaki and llue were all the go. - But this year styles have changed. A new type of clothes for a new type of men.. Renewed by the events of the war, American men require clothes to set off their vigor and their ambitions—clothes brisk and buoyant in dengn——styles with vim and go and punch. The House of Kuppenheimer has created such clothes for the men of this community—clothes that interpret the times, “ace-high’’ in dependability and ac- curacy of fit; fabrics that have life; smart patterns and color tones. The kind of clothes that will fully satisfy' your careful regard for your appearance at Easter or any time. Values equally satisfying. .
