A Simple Remedy Will Bring Back the Natural Celor. “Pull out one gray hair and a dozen will take its place,” is an old saying, which is, to a great extent, true, if no steps are taken to stop the cause. When gray hairs appear it is a sign that Na- ture needs assistance. It is Nature's call for help, Gray hair, dull, lifeless hair, or hair that is falilng out, is not necesgarily a sign of advancing age, for there are thousands of elderly people with perfect heads of hair without a single streak of gray. When gray hairs come, or when the hair seemg to be lifeless or dead, some good, reliable hair-restoring treatment should be resorted to at once. Special- ists say that one of the best prepara- tions to use is the old-fashioned “sage tea” which our grandparents used. Th‘e hest preparation of this kind is Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy, a preperation of domestic sage and .\11- phur, scientifically compounded with later discovered hair tonics and stim- ulants, the whole mixture being care- fully balanced and tested by experts. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is clean and wholesome and perfectly harmless. It refreshes dry, parched hair, removes dandruff and gradually restores faded or gray hair to its natural color. Don't delay another minnte. Start using Wyeth’s Sage and, Sulphur at once and see what a difference a few days’ treatment will make in your hair. This preparation is offered to the public at fifty cents a bottle, and is recommended and sold by all druggists. Special agents, Lee & Osgood. 131 Main street.
