THE CONTINUAL RISE AND FALL. OF TEE CURLING
IRON AND BusTLK.
From the New York Iferaidi
CHIT is fellow that see only once In awhile.
He Is staid. every day business man, not at all
rfyen 10 the frivoiities OF lfe Some three months
out OF hair store He was carrying little parcel
"Eello, old man, been buying a false mustache?"
I asked. Gift looked little severe. He's rather
toucny about his mustache.
sNo, I've been buying pair OF d--n curling
irons he replied, In Iorcible but inelegan. En-
glish.
the CONVERSATION stopped sa there and we passed
The other day happened 20 be going by the
same sore, when who should come out again but
Gilt, with another little parcel in his hand.
SHORE curling irons?" asked. as We shook
hands
member the last time We met, you had just been
getting pair7" There seems to be a big demand
for them In your family.
"Big demand! My boy, you've no idea OF II.
There are curling contrivances enough in our bu-
reau TO stock a female barber shop. If there are
any such things"
''what do you get so many for? Do they wear
out quick?n
swear outl They never wear out It's because
my wife wants 'em. You'll nnd out when you get
married. believe they're all cranks on the sub
ject. Say, I've tackaSsed myself into that store
eleven Times In fifteen months to get bang curriers'
aud rye got 70 DC perfect guy. The girls smoker
when they see me in the door. You see there is
some nend that inventS new hair curer about
once month. Then the women hear OF IL and
have 10 have one. Whether they hear of IL or not
they have to have some kind or a new one Just Tor
variety. woman could no more do her nair up
the same way for year running than she could
talk politics."
II should think when she found good kind she
would stick TO it?'
mot at all. After using one month she dis
covers mat IL Is perfectly horrid and burns her
halr all up And somebody or other has told her
OF another Kind that is just lovely and doesn't
nurt the mar at all. She must have one, No use
arguing thaI they are all about alike. She will
uoor you Elth the remark that If you would rather
nave ner halr spoiled than to take little trouble
ana spend nifty cents she doesn't care, but she
thought you took little pride Ia her appearance
Then you go of and make fool OF yourself for
the tenth time.
"Ihis female mania for variety isn't confined to
CURING irons either. It's just the same with
DuStieS. NOW you wouldn't think that a woman
would care whether she mad the newest kind of
DuSIie or not so long as the shape OF the thing
was fashionable. But she does. There's q CON
slant shifting from bag stuffed with curled hair
10 thlng Ike woven wire FISH net or a set of
canVaS-covered colled SPRINGS and so on and on.
IL takes ABOUT three months IoI woman to dis

A Roem for West Haven-Organiza-
 tfon or n Company with S5O,OOO Cap
 xeaI-Senator James Graham PresI-
 dent-Tmportant Improvements to be
 Made at once.
 West Haven is going to be improved. Some time ago Senator James Graham of West Haven, who has manufactory in this city, bought tract of land just beyond West river, and recently completed other purchases which gave him all the land he wanted. With others he organized corporation en- titled the West Haven Coal and Wharf com. pany, with capital amounting to $50,00o. The stockholders are: James Graham, Supt. w. w. Ward of the West Haven horse rail- road, Albert H. Young, the coal merchant of Long wharf. MT. Foy, of Foy, Chadwick & Harmon, and D. Goffe Phipps. Senator Gra- ham was elected president of the company, Supt. Wood treasurer and MT. Young secre, tary.
 The land the company owns is five hundred | feet front on Kimberly avenue, four hundred feet front on the channel and nearly five hun. dred feet on Elm street. It comes to a point at the junction of Elm street and Kimberly avenue It has the best water front that car | be found alJng West Haven shore, as tht | water IS from eight to ten feet deep. There | is very little water front obtainable in thii | vicinity now, as it is almost all owned by parties who do not intend to sell.
 The company will carry on coal business MT. Young's coal yard on Long wharf ii owned and run by the company. The plac'
 of the proposed improvement is contiguou to the city, which makes the venture all tn more important. Work will be begun a
 once The wharf will be rebuilt and enlarged
 and the land filled in where necessary. Tn
 channel will also be deepened. Near by ol
 the shore is the shipyard of Henry Suttol
 and the key shop is near on Elm street. Thi
 location is evidently one of importance, bein I at the entrance to West Havel
 and next door to the city. The i'm provement will create & boom in Yves
 Haven. Coal sheds will be put up and tn
 wharf will also be used for other purpose
 not yet fully developed, which, if carried ou as proposed, will be of great advantage t
 the business interests of West Haven. Tn land runs from Nettleton's store all the wa l to the abutments of the bridge to the wes side of the channel of the river. The prop
 erty was bought from five different parties
 The company has already put in seyera
 thousand tons of coal.
