They married later that same year. She was in 1880 to marry again, to the recently widowed William Henville Burford. Hawkes grew up in Port Adelaide, and like his brother James attended Adelaide Educational Institution, but unlike him was not a prize-winning student. In 1871 he began marketing writing ink and branding inks (used with a stencil for labelling bales of wool etc.), manufactured at premises at 88 Currie Street, then the following year moved to Coromandel Place, off Grenfell Street, where his four or five employees also produced animal charcoal for filtering water and a washing powder.

Emma Claus was born in Göttingen, the sixth of her parents' nine recorded children. Her father was an unskilled rural labourer and the family was poor. The family atmosphere in which she grew up was strongly Christian, and she herself excelled during her six years at junior school, but it was not financially possible for her to progress to secondary school. On leaving school she worked for neighbouring families as a child carer and helped with her own family's "home work" which involved boxing up and weighing packets of washing powder for the local soap factory.

Indeed, it is taken from [the vessels] that one formerly used for the roasting of washing powder concentrated from cinders: iron pots (pott in the dialect of Lower Saxony), for which roasting ovens have been substituted since then. Thus I now propose to substitute for the until now common words of "plant alkali", "vegetable alkali", "potash", etc., that of kali ; and to return to the old name of natron instead of saying "mineral alkali", "soda", etc.) In 1807, Humphry Davy produced the element via electrolysis: in 1809, Ludwig Wilhelm Gilbert proposed the name Kalium for Davy's "potassium". In 1814, the Swedish chemist Berzelius advocated the name kalium for potassium, with the chemical symbol "K".

Already at the end of the 1950s Hoff started to work with the German advertisement agency Hanns W. Brose GmbH and its enigmatic owner Hanns Walter Brose in Frankfurt am Main. In 1958 a small campaign of only eight ads - due to a limited budget of Böhme Fettchemie GmbH - his illustrations were advertising FeWa FeinWaschmittel (fine washing powder). As the work with Brose was going very well and Simpson's decided to rebrand their advertisement, Hoff finished his work with Simpson's and from 1961 on became an exclusive advertisement artist for the Hanns W. Brose GmbH. This happened due to the fact that Hanns W. Brose - who had an advertising contract for Reemtsma's Astor Cigarettes for some years – wanted to acquire a second contract with another cigarette trademark of Reemtsma Haus Neuerburg.

It is important to differentiate between booze cruisers (who purchase and transport goods legally) and professional smugglers, who often have criminal motives. Genuine booze cruisers are often people 'on a budget', who simply opt to purchase their own personal supplies from 'Shop A' (in France or Belgium) at lower prices than offered at 'Shop B' (in Britain). Booze cruisers normally travel as a family or group of friends, and often take the opportunity to generally have a 'day out' in France and indulge in recreational 'channel shopping' for French produce and unfamiliar foods, clothing and other goods while they are there. In addition to alcohol and tobacco, many other items, including mundane household items such as washing powder and cooking oil are much cheaper in France than the UK. The cost of getting to France fluctuates due to season and fuel surcharges, but fares for foot passengers remain low.

Watching Astaire and Rogers finish their dance, two tutu-wearing figures on the box front of "Gold Rust Twins Washing Powder", one of whom is a caricature of Fats Waller wearing a tiny bowler hat, shout, "swing it, brother", to a Bisquit chef banging upon an oversized drum. A hammer holding arm on the package of "Strong Arm Baking Soda / Burp and Company Carbonated Soda" strikes the side of "Kleenax for Pots and Pans" as Fats Waller jumps over to the box of "Piano Wax" and, with a stogie in his mouth, begins to play and sing. The other "Gold Rust Twin", a caricature of Louis Armstrong, remains on the box and sings "Nagasaki". Two roosters on the front of "Chicken Feed" follow the rhythm, Aunt Emma steps off the box of her pancake flour, executing dance steps and waving her arms, while triplicate packages feature "Yea Man" chefs singing in unison.

The Balilla 508 was one of the first attempt of mass motorization in Europe, long before the Wolkswagen Beetle or the Citroën 2CV though its customers were more lower middle and middle class than working classes, it was a quite desired (and often stolen) item in 1930s Italy. It was such an emblematic car that a specially dedicated song (or better said dozens variations of an initial song) was created at the time of its launch. The song is a burlesque and almost surrealist ballad called "La Balilla"about a small time cottage industrialist who sells soap, bleach and washing powder on town markets and makes a tidy income out of it, enabling him to buy a top of the range balilla with an exotic option, a special custom upholstery made out of eel skin. He instantly triggers envy and jealousy around him, his sisters, brothers, neighbours and relatives (and even a picturesque mob of passers-by) start literally to eat the car bit by bit.

This was formally governed under the Consumer Protection Act 1987, s 20(1) Sellers still have a defence of legitimate "puffery", or that their representations could not be taken seriously (e.g. "this washing powder makes your clothes whiter than white!"). Secondly, although it was not discussed in the case, there was evidence at the time that using the smoke ball actually made people more vulnerable to the flu (carbolic acid was put on the poisons register in 1900). The General Product Safety Regulations 2005/1803 which are part of a European Union wide consumer protection regime (Directive 2001/95/ECDirective 2001/95/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 3 December 2001 on general product safety) again provide criminal penalties for unsafe products. Thirdly, the Consumer Protection Act 1987 (which is also part of EU wide regulation under Directive 85/374/EECCouncil Directive 85/374/EEC of 25 July 1985 on the approximation of the laws, regulations and administrative provisions of the Member States concerning liability for defective products) creates a statutory tort of strict liability for defective products that cause any kind of personal injury or death, or damage over £100.
