1t is absolutely impossible to get a fast
and satisfactory color in cotton from the
same dyes as used for wooden goods, and
for that reason Diamond Dyes have a
specially prepared line of fast colors for
cotton that will give perfect satisfaction.
BE sure to get fast cotton dyes, and you
can make cOlors that even washing in
strong soapsuds and exposure to the sun
light will not fade.
Do not risk spelling your goods with
dyes that claim to color both cot
and wool with the same dye, as
they are liable to ruin your material and
cause the loss of your time and work.
Some dealers try to sell new and untried
dyes in place of the old reliable Diamond
Dyes, but this is simply because they
can buy them cheaper than the Diamond.
