TO-NIGHT A Big Treat for Bemidji Theatre Goers FEW FOLKS:HAVE L.V GRAY HAIR NOW Well-known Local Druggist Says Everybody Is Using Old-time re cipe Of Sage Tea And Sulphur Hair that loses it color and lustre, or when it fades, turns gray, dull and lifeless, is caused by a lack of sulphur in the hair. Our grandmother made up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sul phur to keep her locks dark and beautiful, and thousands of women and men who value that even color, that beautiful dark shade of hair which is so attractive, use only this old-time recipe. Nowadays we get this famous mix ture by asking at any drug store for a 50 cent bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy," which dark ens the hair so naturally, so evenly, that nobody can possibly tell it has been applied. Besides, it takes off dandruff, stops scalp itching and fall ing hair. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morn ing the gray hair disappears,' but what delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is that, be sides beaufcifuly darkening the hair after a few applications, it also brings back the gloss and lustre and gives it an appearance of aboundance. .J. .$. .1. .J. .J. .J.
