Wall Papers.

Wall papers were little used in Europe
before the Eighteenth Century, though
they had been long before that applied
to house decoration by the Chinese.
Those that were first manufactured in
the west were adaptations of design from
italian brocades, and at first they were
used in an unobjectionable manner, just
as hangings of the costlier material were
employed-namely, to fill spaces between
obvious structural lines-and, so applied,
no objection could be made to their use.
On the contrary, the invention brought
it within the means of almost every
householder to fill blank wall spaces with
agreeable tracery and harmonious color.
The cornice, frieze, and dado Ie.

with molding or plaster work, and the
inmate might feel that he was living in
q built room and not in bandbox. But
gradually the wall features disappeared /;
rnper crept over everything except win
dow aud door openings, even into the
| very angles of the walls, and it is nothing
uncommon now on entering a saloon OF
considerable pretenson and proportions
to find the walls closely covered with
paper from floor to ceiling, save a mar
skirting board to protect the plaster from
the housemaid's broom and cornice re-
duced to meagre molding.,
