EASY TO DARKEN YOUR CRAY HAIR You Can Bring Back Color and • Lustre With Sage Tea and Sulphur When you darken your hair with Sage Tea and Sulphur, no ono can tell, because it's done so naturally, so evently. Preparing this mixture though at home is mussy and troublesome. At little cost you can buy at any drug store the ready-to-use preparation, improved by the addition ot other ingredients called "Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound.” You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morning all gray hair disappears, and. after another application or two. your hair becomes beautifully darkened, glossy and luxuriant. Gray, faded hair, though no disgrace. Is a sign of old age, and as we all desire a youthful and attractive appearance. get busy at once with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound and look years younger. J. H. Heller and son. Dick, motored to Vincennes today to attend a meeting of the Democratic Editors.
