TO DYE A FAST BLACK.
With Diamond Dyes One Can Color Biacl
SO that il Will Not Fade
or Wash Out.

1t is only within the last few wears
that it has been possible for an mex
perienced person to dye black that
would not crock, fade or wash out.
Even blacks dyed by city steam dve-
ing establishments were seldom re-
liable and fast.
The advent of three Diamond Dive
Fast Blacks-for wool, for cotton and
for silk and feathers-has changed all
this. With a 10-cent package of one
of these Diamond DYE Fast Blacks the
first trial gives perfect success. The
directions on the packages are so
plain and simple that even a child
can get better results than the exper-
fenced dyer of a few wears ago.
Success in home dveing is secured
only when the Diamond DYES are
used. Do not be persuaded by any
dealer to buy limitations of the Dia-
mond DYES that have no past record
to recommend them. The Diamond
DYES are the only warranted colors
fo.domestic dyein@.
