With It, to Restore Color, Gloss, Youthfulness Common garden sage brewed into heavy tea’ with, sulphur added, wiil turn gray, streaked ant taded Jiair beautifully dark and luxuriant, Just a few applications will prove a rev- elation if your hair is fading, streak- ed or gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and, Sulphur recipe at home, though, is troublesome. An easier way is to get a 50-cent bottle of Wyeth'’s Sage and Sulphur Cémpound at any drug store all ready for use. ‘This is the old time recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients. While wispy, gray, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractive- ness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one ‘can tell, because it does it so naturally, so evenly. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this’ through your hair, taking one smal] strand at a time; by morning all gray hairs have disap- peared, and, after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant. This, preparation is a delightful tof. let requisite and is not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease.
