i ‘if
u
&: Our telephone tinkled a few days ago. We
!:•: lifted the receiver and a lady-like voice drifted
i::: to us over the wire.
•i;: ‘I’ve been reading your advertising”, it said,
•£ “but I’ve been told you use chemicals. And
—well, I’d like to send you my washing, only
:•:• I’m afraid those chemicals would ruin my
clothes. Do you actually use chemical?, in
washing?”
jg You will be interested in knowing what we
j£ informed her. It was this:
vl
:§ Like the goblins that in our childhood days
Jurked around the corner, the “chemicals” that
§: laundries use have been imagined by many
:| housewives to be fearsome things—and most
certainly never to be used on the family wash.
The words “chemical" and “harmful” have been
thought of as having one and the same sinister
g meaning. r
We suffer from a misunderstanding of the
term “chemical”, for we live on “chemicals”—
on some of the very same “chemicals” that
help clean our clothes. The water we drink,
g for instance, is a chemical compound of the
gi gases oxygen and hydrogen. We breathe air
ig ture of oxygen, nitro
g: gen and inert gases.
Everything we wear
ig and use is “chemical”,
g: only most of us have
g: n’t appreciated it here
ig tofore.
:g No work can be done
ig without the assistance
of “chemicals” in some form. These helpful
“chemicals” are friendly “chemicals”.
In common with those of the housewife, our 1
friendly “chemicals” are sours, a mild soda,
Javelle Water, chipped soap, and pure soft
water.
Consider these.
In the dressing served with your salad is a
higher concentration of free acid than will be
found in our sours.
Everyone has eaten more excess soda ash in S?
biscuits than is commonly used on the fam- jij:
ily washing in the laundry. !i|:
The snowy whiteness which you secure with §:
bleaches is obtained by us with an even milder :$
preparation—Javelle Water. It was this same
Javelle Water that was so helpful during the £:
war in purifying wounds.
But these materials are only incidental in our
laundry. Our principal “chemical” and real
cleansing agent is pure, soft water. This water
in which your clothes are washed by us is
changed as many as from nine to twelve times -x
in the washing process. It is this soft water, «
with creamy suds, that gives to our laundry ijij
vvui b 110 uuai av-iui loui,
beautiful appearance.
The sum of our meth
ods is clothes conser
vation.
Visit us and be en
lightened. You will find iji;
‘ us well qualified to $:
take over the burden of
your family washing.
