Gray Hair Becomes Dark and Beautiful

TRY. GRANDMOTHEWS OLD FAVORITE RECIPE OF SAGE TEA AND SULPHUR

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly com- pounded, brings ‘back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home which is mussy and troublesome.

Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for “Wyetb’s Sage and Sulphur Compound." You will get u large bottle of this old-time rec- ipe improved by the addition of oth- er ingrcdients, at very little cost. Everybody uses this preparation now, because no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and ov- eniy. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, and after another application or two, your hair bo-

can be culled even more closely, because their lower value does not encourage keeping an animal which doesuot produce profitably. There is a good demand for the female offspring st good prices. One who goes into dairying for the purpose of producing dairy products‘. and not with the idea of gaining a large part of his income from -the sale of stock, may do quite as well with grade cattle as" with pure- breds. 4 As in most things‘. success in cat. tlo depends upon the ‘individual hi-mself. zlud whether grades or Duro-breds are most desirable can be settled Ouly when the particular conditions surrounding tho in- iluvidual csscs are considered. -__-_...-____.
