Don’t hide your freckles under a veil; get an ‘ounce of .:Othine and remove -them. Even the . first few applications should show a wonderful improvement, .some of the lighter freckles: vanishing: entirely.. Be, sure.to ask the druggist Zor the double strength Othine;. it is this that is sold on the money-back guar- antee. 5 FEW FOLKS HAVE GRAY HAIR NOW Druggist Says Ladies are Using Recipe - of Sage. Tea ’ and Sulphur Hair that loses its color and lustre, or- when it fades, turns.gray, dull and lifeless, is caused by a lack of sulphur in the hair. Our grand- mother made up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to keep her: locks dark and beautiful, and thousands of women and men ‘who value. that | even color, that beautiful dark shade ‘of hair which is so attractive, uses only this old-time recipe. l Nowadays we, get this famous mix- ture improved by ‘the addition of other ingredients by asking .at any drug store for a bottle of “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound,” which darkens the hair so naturally, so evenly, that nobody can possibly | tell it has been applied. You just idampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. i By mourn the gray hair disappears; but what delights the ladies with + Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound is that, besides beautifully darken- ,ing the hair after a few applica- tions, it also brings back the .gloss ‘and lustre and gives it an appearance of abundance.
