WHY SOME DYES ARE "FAST"
Vegetable and Animal Compounds Su-
perior to Any Products of the
Chemists Laboratory.

Some dyes are FAST" others fade
either when the goods are washed or
when they are exposed to the sunlight.
The fastness or otherwise of a color
depends upon the arrangement of the
atoms that make up its molecules. If
these be closely interviewer, neither
light nor water can separate them;
but If they are loosely Joined together
light and water make them disinte-
crate. Most of our modern dyes are
derived from coal tar and consist Of
atoms of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen
and other elements. The vegetable
dyes usually contain no other elements
but carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.
That is why, being so simple, such
colors as logwood and natural indigo
are the fastest of all. The few ami
NAL dyes-cochineal, for example
are fast for the same reason. But
the so-called anilin dyes are the prod
uct of the chemists laboratory and
are complex and loosely bound COM
binations of the atoms Of many ele-
ments. There are acid dyes and al
kaline dyes, and before applying them
to any stuff one must know whether
the cells of this are acid or alkaline
in reaction. For opposites attract,
likes repel. Therefore we must use
acid dyes for alkaline materials and
alkaline dyes for acid materials.
