Decorative Wall Paper
First Appeared in Europe
During Seventeenth Century

Among many other and useful beau
tiful things for which we are indebted
to the Chinese, wall paper Is not the
least, notes a writer In the Pittsburgh
Dispatch. This decorative paper for
walls seems to have first appeared In
Europe toward the end of the seven
teenth century. 1t was brought to
France by overseas traders, and the
French Immediately perceived the pos
sibilities thus offered. The paper did
not come In rolls, as we have 1t today.
but In sheets about three and one-half
feet wide by ten feet In length. Some
Of the finest grades were printed by
hand and the cheaper grades from
wooden blocks. The patterns represent
ed animals, temples, warriors and all
the other familiar figures Of Chinese
art. The French called these new wall
coverings 'pagoda papers, and II soon
became the fashion to have at least
one or two rooms In every home of any
~pretensions finished with "pagoda pa.
pers."
Throughout the eighteenth century
the custom gradually spread. Both In
France and England there were adap-
tations OF the Chinese Idea. There is
q record Of wall paper In England as
tar back as the time of Henry VIII,
when the inventory OF a monastery In
Guided chamber hangings of painted
papers" There are how in existence
examples Of English wall paper from
the reign OF Charles II.
Some OF the early attempts in the
manufacture OF wall paper are highly
interesting. Tapestries were the ele-
CANT wall coverings through the renais'
sance, al they have been during the
middle ages. But tapestries were ex.
pensive and beyond the reach of ordi'
nary persons. So q good citizen OF
Rouen named lie Francois hit upon the
idea Of initiating tapestries. He had
fanciful drawings made in the tapestry
style on large pieces Of paper pasted
together In about the size of a tapes
try. Upon these drawings lie Fran
co.'s spread a kind of mucilage ant
then sprinkled the mucilage with pow
dered wool In different colors. PA

came into general usage.

This number, however, compares
well with the receipts of a week ago
which were 4,307 and is a fair in
crease over the 2,525 of the same
day a year ago.
The market today was lower, be-
ing the eighth time in the last two
weeks that a falling off in prices was
recorded.
Reports from Chicago and Omaha
showed average runs and a falling
off in bidding, and in the local yards
the tone of the markets at the larger
points vas adopted from the opening.
The falling off in prices was gen.
eral throughout all grades and a flat
decline of about 15c was recorded.
Trade was slow from the opening, no
competition developed and the mar
ket in general continued draggy as
during the last two weeks. No ur-
gent orders were in the hands of
shippers, and but a limited supply of
good shipping hogs was on sale.
Hogs in the yards averaged heavy,
with the packers taking the long end.
Top hogs sold at 1920 and the bulk
of sales was made at $1S.50@1S.75

Procedure in Becoming a
Citizen of United States

Naturalization may take place in any
United States court or in any state
court of record. A foreigner desiring
c~luzenship must first file with the
court a declaration of intention, set
ting forth the main facts of his resi-
dence. Then, not less than two years
after his declaration, and after a con
tinuous residence Of five years, he
may apply to petition for citizenship.
In this application he must declare his
allegiance to the United States and
renounce other allegiance. He must
not be an anarchist and he must speak
English. If the applicant can pass a
satisfactory examination on all these
points, the court will order his admis-
sion to citizenship.
