Common garden sage brewed in to a heavy tea with sulphur added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxuriant. Just a few applications will prove a revelation if your hair is fading, streaked or gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home, though, is troublesome. An easier way is to get a bottle of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound at any drug store all ready for use. This is the old-time recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients. While wispy, gray, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractive ness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound, no one can tell, because it does it so naturally, so evenly. 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 hairs have disappeared, and, after another appli cation or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and lux uriant. This preparation is a delightful toilet requisite and is not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease. A''" Mrs. Nina Marguart won fourth prize in the Omaha knitting contest.
