Adv. : . . TO AIR APPLY SAGE TEA A few applications of Sage Tea and 8ulpfaur bringa back its vigor, ' color, glow and thlckneta . . Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea with . sulphur and aioohol i added, will turn gray, streaked and faded : hair beautifully dark and luxuriant, re move every bit of dandruff, stop scalp itching and falling hur. Just a few . applications will prove a revelation if your hair is fading, gray or dry, scrag ' gly and thin. Mixing the Sage 'lVa. and Sulphur recipe at homo, though, is troublesome. An easier way is to get tho ready-to-use tonic, costing about 60 cents a large bottle at drug stores, known as "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem edy," thus avoiding a lot of muss. While wispy, gray, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youth ful appoanuice and attractiveness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage : and Sulphur, no one can tell, because it does it so natarally, so evenly. You just ' , , , ,f dampen a sponm or soft brush with it i aut before th'ey and draw this through your hair, taking , o one small strand at a time; by morning They went -after another application or two,' your L, Omaha" too, hair becomes beautifully dark, glosey, 1 hey saw all the sights, that X , ED AND HIS WIFE. , ; Ed O.
