Quote context

[...]

- Now I want to tell you a real-life story which happened to Mrs. Florence Dewey of Morris, Illinois.

- About five or six years ago Mrs. Dewey bought some material for a new dress.

- It was a washable rayon crepe... a beautiful print with bright-colored sprays on a navy blue background.

- That was a long time ago.

- Just recently we heard from Mrs. Dewey about that same dress. Here's what she said...

- I followed your advice about using Lux Flakes and I've never used anything else in laundering this dress.

- It has been washed over a hundred times and yet the colors are still bright and fresh.

- In fact, I can't see any difference between the colors in this dress that I wash so often and a jacket, made from the same material at the same time, that I've worn and washed only a few times.

- I'd like to thank Mrs. Dewey for letting us tell you about that remarkable record...

- It is one more proof... and a good one... of how very gentle New Quick Lux Flakes are, how safe for anything safe in water.

- You see, there's no harmful alkali in New Quick Lux, so naturally your pretty things don't get faded and dull, but stay fresh and new-looking longer.
