to hold his place in the line. Al

the war with a smile and a spirit of
optimism that is in itself worth see
ing. Private Peat's talk will deal

people who go into it.

sleeve now. They show he has been
wounded twice. Once it was a gas

TO DARKEN HAIR
APPLY SAGE TEA
i
A few applications of Safe Tea and Sulphur
bring back its vigor, color, gloss
and youthfulness.
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''"
