Grandma kept hor locks dark,
glossy, thick with a mixture
of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
The old-time mixture of Saga Tea aad
Sulphur fir darkening gray, streaked
and faded hair is grandmother's treat
ment, and folks are again using it to
keep their hair a rood, even color, which
is quite sensible, as we are living, in an
age when a youthful appearance is of the
greatest advantaga.
Nowadays, though, we don't have the
troublesome task of gathering the sage
and the mussy mixing at home. All
drug stores sell the ready-to-use product
called "Wyeth's Sago and Sulphur Hair
Remedy" for about SO cents a bottle.
t Is very popular because nobody can
discover It has beea applied. Simply
moisten your comb or a soft brush with It
and draw this through your hair, taking
