Beit

I,
FRAN.cois
MARCEL
WoELFFLé,
a
citizen
of
the
United
States,
of
New

have
invented
certain
new
and
useful
Improvements
in
Curling-Irons,
of
The
object
of
my
invention
is
to
provide
a
hair

be
given
a
waving
appearance
and
in
which
the
wave
may
be
curved
in
regard
to
the
lengthwise
direction
of
the
hair
with

has

curlers.
Heretofore
it
has
been
necessary
with
a
curling-iron
having
the
two
members
in

members,
so
as to
give
it
a
wave,
to

the
outer
edge
of
the
curler
and
then
work
the

and

so

to
the
