Since the Dyckman farmhouse at
Broadway and Two Hundred and For
ty-second street, New York, has been
turned over to the city, visitors are
flocking there to view this old relic
of the old Dutch days and its immense
Dutch ovens. In restoring the house
to the form and detail of the time
when the great-grand-daddi of the
Holland society boys used to visit Jan
Dyckman, the architect had workmen
with pickaxes break through the wall
in the basement kitchen on either side
of the fireplace, and the ovens, black
with the bakings of centuries, were
disclosed. People who live the gay
kitchenette life have little idea of the
size of Dutch oven, and just no idea
at all of how many five-cent loaves of
bread can be crowded into one of
them. About fifty loaves may be
slowed away in the ovens. All of
which shows that the good old Dutch
did not have stingy ideas about the

the weeping tree of the Canary

from which the inhabitants OF the
neighborhood can supply themselves
with a beverage that is absolutely
fresh and pure.
The water comes out of the tree
itself through innumerable little pores
situated at the margin of the leaves.

Tests of Civilization.

1t is only vulgar minds that mistake
bigness for greatness, for greatness is
OF the soul. not of the body. In the
judgment which history will hereafter
pass upon the forty centuries Of record
ed progress toward civilization that
now lie behind us, what are the tests
1t will apply to determine the true
greatness of people? Not population,
not territory, not wealth, not military
power. Rather will history ask: What
examples OF lofty character and IN
selfish devotion to honor and duty has
q people given? What has 1t done to
increase the volume of knowledge?
What thoughts and what ideals Of per
manent value and unexhausted fertility
has IL produced in poetry. music. and
