high, do not try to bring it down by a 
border; carry the picture moulding, if 
there be one, all the way up to the cornice 
or angle between the ceiling and walls. 
Floor coverings in any hall, of whatever 
type, should be quiet and neutral in tone. 
The furnishing of the hall is an exceed¬ 
ingly important matter. Let simplicity he 
the guiding principle in the choice and 
disposition of furniture and the adornment 
of the walls. In the long, narrow hall, the 
less furniture the better. It will be quite 
enough if there is a table (for a card 
salver) and candlesticks—the Victorian 
hat rack of whatever species should be 
absolutely taboo— and a chair against the 
wall at either end of the table. Above the 
table may be hung a mirror, a suitable pic¬ 
ture or a bit of brocade or tapestry, flanked 
by sconces, which will give the necessary 
decorative distinction and will be quite 
enough to furnish the hall for all practical 
purposes. Put the card salver and and a 
couple of candlesticks or acceptable 
Oriental vases, mounted on teakwood 
stands, or some simple but elegant similar 
bit of bric-a-brac on the table. If a table 
is not placed against the wall, a chest may 
be used instead. In the well-lighted long 
gallery traversing the face or rear of the 
house, a sort of long hallway adopted from 
English models and now much in favor, 
one may appropriately range a great deal 
of furniture along both sides. In the hall 
of ordinary width, of course, there is a 
great deal of possibility to introduce other 
appropriate pieces of furniture, such as 
chests, chairs, lowboys or highboys, sofas, 
mirrors—in fact, any piece of furniture 
that stands against the wall and may add 
to the decorative attractiveness of the hall¬ 
way. It is important, however, to see that 
not too many objects are placed in the 
hall, so that it will be crowded or lacking 
in the aspect of roominess. Hats, coats 
and umbrellas should always be kept out 
of sight and a place should be provided 
for them in a closet conveniently ac¬ 
cessible. 
Let the wall ornaments be exceedingly 
few but well chosen. Do not make the 
hallway a picture gallery or hang anything 
there that may detract from the air of 
elegant simplicity. It will be well to study 
effective groupings of furniture for a 
broad hall, such as a table with a pair of 
candlesticks, a table or lowboy with a pair 
of candlesticks and a china bowl upon it, 
and above it a mirror or girandole or hang¬ 
ing sconces. Such furniture grouping needs 
careful thought to make it thoroughly ef¬ 
fective. 
In living-room hallways there are almost 
always suitable opportunities for building 
in locker seats or settles and window seats. 
Oftentimes this arrangement can be ef¬ 
fected in conjunction with the construction 
of bookcases. In halls of this description 
a great deal of paneling can be done in 
connection with the built-in furniture and 
the balusters of the stairway with excellent 
results.
