A striped pattern will increase the apparent height of the walls ; while one with any kind of horizontal lines, or checks, will diminish it. If a plain " lining" paper is chosen, the effect will be quiet and homely, and we shall have more money to spend else- where.
A picture-rail fixed low down — just above the top of the door is as good a level as any — while costing little, saves the plaster of the wall from being damaged a...nd makes an excellent stop for the wall-paper or distemper below, while the space above it can be whitened just Hke the ceiling. This arrangement saves a large part of the 88 THE CHEAP COTTAGE cost of wall treatment, and obviates the use of plaster cornices, which are expensive, dust-catching, and often unsightly.
