THE DALLES OREGON THE PAPERING OF WALLS. An Ancient Chinese Method of Decorat ing Houses. Wall papers were little used in Eu rope before the eighteenth century, though they had been long before that applied to house decoration by the Chi nese. Those that were first manufac tured in the west were adaptations of design from Italian brocades, and at first they were used in an unobjection able manner, just as hangings of the costlier material were employed, namely: To fill spaces between obvious structural lines; and, so applied, no ob jection 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 remained intact; coigns were protected with molding or plaster work, and the .in mate might feel that he was living in a built room and not in a bandbox. But gradually the wall features disap peared; paper crept over everything ex cept window and door openings, even into the very angles of the walls, and it is nothing uncommon now on enter ing a saloon of considerable pretension and proportions to find the walls close ly covered with paper from floor to ceiling, save a narrow skirting board to protect the plaster from the housemaid's broom and a cornice reduced to a meager molding. Deserving Praise. We desire to say to oar citizens, that for years we have been selling Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Dr. King's New Life Pills, Bucklen's Arnica Salve and Electric Bitters, and have never handled remedies that sell as well, or that have given such universal satisfaction. We clo not hesitate to guarantee them every time, as we stand ready to refund the purchase price, if satisfactory results do not follow their use. There remedies have won their great popularity purely on their merits. Snipes & Kinersly's druggists.
