CosTERs' CURLING ToNGs.
They Take Great Pride in Adjournment
of Their Hair

From Tit-B'ts.
With all that has been written about
costers of late years there is one fact known
to every East End barber, which the writer
has never seen dwelt upon anywhere. and
that is, the immense pride that 'dossy'
young costers and young men of analogous
class in the East End take in the adorn-
ment of their hair.
An East End barber in a large way ot
for years as an assistant in a West End es-
Establishment, the other day told the present
writer that he never, even in the West
End knew the young men as a class to be
more particular to how they would have
immense hair-curling business here solely
with young fellows who spring from hum
BILE class
Il often curl the hair of scores of coster
young men twice a week. he said, and
sell a very great number of curling tongs to
coSterS and barmen, two curlS from the
forehead to the back of the head being ap-
parently a necessity of existence with the
smart barmen. Butchers lads, perhaps -
they are often without hats, are great pa
irons of curling irons. In proportion 20
their incomes even celebrated West End
swells do not spend more"
Another barber bore this out to the full
and referred the writer to a shop at Dept
ford, which sells immense quantities of
cheap curling requisites to costers, barmen,
young soldiers at Woolwich and to butcher
boys. The proprietor of this shop declared
that he sold almost many of such requi-
sites 10 costers and barmen he did TO
