There i nothing new about the idea of using Sage for restoring the color of the hair. Our grandmothers kept their hair dark, glossy and abundant by the use of a simple “Sage Tea.” Whenever their hair fell out or took on a dull, faded or streaked appearance, they made a brew of Sage leaves, and applied it to their hair, with wonder- fully beneficial effect. Nowadays we don’t have to resort to the old-time tiresome method of gath- ering the herbs and making the tea. This 8 done by skillful chemists better than we could do it ourselves; and all we have to do is to call for the ready- made product, Wyeth’'s Sage and Sul- phur Hair Remedy, containing Sage in | the proper strength, with the addition | of Sulphur, another old-time scalp remedy. This preparation gives youthful col- or and beauty to the hair, and is onse | of the best remedies you can use for | dandruff, dry, feverish, itching scalp, | and falling hair. Get a fifty cent bot- | tle from your druggist today, and you ! will be surprised at the quick resul ot All druggists sell it, under guarantee | that the money will be refunded’if the remedy is not exactly as represented.
