3 Glnzed Wall PaOer.

The very best finish for kitchen or
bathroom walls Is glazed paper. This
is popularity known rs tile paper, be-
cause these papers were first printed
IN %he patterns of tiles and are still
more often shown In some block design
than any other. There are cheap varie-
ties of this paper, but they are not dur
able. The best English tile paper Is
the cheapest in the end, though 1t costa
% cents a roll. 1t is shown in blue and
cream, pink and cream, and cream or
white, and other colors. The great adj
vantage of this paperis that it is inn
pervious to water, steam and odors Of
cooking, and may be wiped Off like a
tiled surface. While dust and smoke
cling to n painted wall so that it needs
n scrubbing brush to remove them. they
may be wiped off a properly glazed
paper with damp cloth. The objec-
ton to whiting and whitewash is that
they must be frequently renewed. and
nfter time the wall will also require
scraping to prevent the successive coats
scaling off. In applying paper to a
wall that has previously been white
washed, scrape the wall thoroughly and
size il. A whitewashed wall needs only
to be washed Off and dried, and then
sized. A good glazed paper will last nm
indefinite time with proper care, and
always look neat and clean.-N. Y. Trib-
una.
