Quote context

- Yes. Look, the blame may belong to the way you wash stockings. You may be wearing out your stockings in the wash.

- Harsh washings with strong wash day products were never meant for delicate nylons.

- Cobweb sheer nylons need delicate care, really special care.

- And each gentle washing in Lux has a special action that keeps nylon thread strong as new, washing after washing, wearing after wearing.

- Lux Flakes care doubles stocking wear. That's like getting an extra pair of nylons with every pair you buy.

Don't know yet what they wanted a bridge for, but then, why did the chicken cross the road?
