FEW FOLKS HAVE 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 grandmother made up a mixture oil Sage Tea and Sul phur to keep her locks dark and beauV; tiful, and thousands of women and men who value that oven color, that beautiful dark shade of hair which Is so attractive;, use only this, old-time recipe. Nowadays we get this famous mix ture improved by the addition of other Ingredients by asking at any drug store for a bottlo of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound," which dark ons the hair so naturally, so evenly, that nobody can possibly tell it has been applied. You Just dompon a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through the hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears; but what delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sngc and Sulphur Compound is that, be sides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applications, it also brings back the gloss and lustre and glvo it an appearance of abundance.
