Ferme de Turpe, Normandy.] + + + + +THE BROCHURE SERIES + +OF ARCHITECTURAL ILLUSTRATION. + +VOL. I. + +OCTOBER, 1895. + +No. 10 + + + + +FRENCH FARMHOUSES. + + +As it is the purpose of THE BROCHURE SERIES to cover as wide a field +as possible in choice of subject matter for its illustrations, and at +the same time hold rigidly to the idea of furnishing only what will +be useful to its subscribers, it has seemed desirable to present +something a little nearer our everyday life than the Italian work +which has thus far formed the greater part of the plate matter. + +The domestic architecture of France and England has naturally served +as a model for a great deal of our American work, and especially is +this noticeable during the present generation in the close relation +between the French châteaux and the more pretentious American +residences, as witness the recent productions of the late Mr. Hunt, +which have just been published since his death. We are, to be +sure, looking in all directions for suggestions, and it cannot help +appearing wonderful to a thoughtful observer how many and varied these +suggestions are. + +Our wealthy citizens are building châteaux in the style of Francis +I or of somebody else, Venetian or Florentine palaces, Roman +villas, Flemish guild-halls, Elizabethan half-timber houses. All, +if tastefully and skilfully designed and placed, have their special +points of beauty and excellence, and all may in the hands of an +architect of ability be made to harmonize with our modern ways of +living and the surroundings in which they must take a part. + +None of these models, however, are more adaptable to our ways than the +country houses of France. This, of course, should not be understood +as meaning that any of these buildings can be transplanted bodily to +American soil and still be satisfactory. Architectural borrowing of +this class is never satisfactory; but no architecture of which we have +any knowledge is independent of precedent, and it only behooves us to +adopt from the experience of others those features or ideas which are +most suited to our needs. The plans and the original uses of the rooms +of these French _manoirs_ may not prove directly adaptable to our +ways of living, but the general massing of the design and the rambling +arrangement of plan, as well as the picturesqueness of it all, are +characteristics which can well be embodied in our country houses. In +their way, no better models can be found than the two _manoirs_ from +Normandy which we illustrate in this number. They have both suffered +from the ravages of time and hard usage, and both are at present, and +for a long time have been, used as farmhouses. The Manoir d'Ango is +the finer and more important of the two, and is better preserved in +some of its more interesting features. + +[Illustration: LXXIV. Ferme de Turpe, Normandy.] + +It is one of the main beauties of the charming village of +Varengeville-sur-Mer, on the north coast of Normandy. It is now +converted into a farmhouse, but in it once a celebrated privateersman +of Dieppe received the ambassadors of the King of Portugual. There are +still many evidences of the former dignity and grandeur in its present +degradation. + +Ango was strictly a _manoir_ in the French sense, that is, a residence +of the second class--not a château, such as Chambord or Blois. + +The principal part of the building consists of but one story with +an open gallery beneath, supported by an arcade with columns bearing +finely carved caps ornamented with female heads, angels, etc. + +In the interior as well as on the exterior may be seen fragments of +sculpture which show much refinement. In one of the rooms of the tower +a monumental mantel carved in stone bears in its centre the bust of an +old man having in his hand a globe surmounted by a cross, the imperial +emblem. This may be the portrait of one of the founders of the Ango +family. + + +LXXIII to LXXVI. + +FERME DE TURPE, NORMANDY. + + +The Ferme de Turpe is situated near the town of Neuchatel-en-Bray, +famous for its cheese. It has fewer interesting details than the +Manoir d'Ango and is in even poorer repair, but in massing and general +picturesque effect it offers many suggestions which can be utilized to +advantage in our country houses. + +Of these four views very little need be said. The charming +picturesqueness of the two general views is sufficient excuse +for presenting them, but they contain much more to the student of +architecture who cares to look for it. The two detailed views give an +excellent idea of the simple, straightforward methods of the builders. + + +LXXVII to LXXX. + +MANOIR D'ANGO. NORMANDY. + + +This building was erected between the years 1530 and 1542. Its general +design and especially its detail are of the François I type, and very +beautifully executed, as will be seen from the larger scale details. +The materials as indicated are stone and brick. + +In Benoist's La Normandie Illustrie a remarkably interesting circular +brick dove-cote is shown in the courtyard of this _manoir_, but it +does not appear in any of our views, and may have been demolished +since M. Benoist's sketches were made in 1852. Its walls were +decorated with colored brick, laid in bands and diaper patterns. + + + + +Club Notes. + + +The Baltimore Architectural Club commenced its active work for +the season on the first of October. It has its rooms in the Wilson +Building, Saratoga and Charles Streets, which are always open for the +use of its members, and there will be regular meetings every Thursday +evening during the winter and spring. At these meetings various +subjects of interest will occupy the attention of the members, both of +a practical and æsthetic character. + +At one meeting of each month there will be an informal talk or +lecture on some of the mechanical, constructive or sanitary questions +connected with architecture. + +On one evening there will be sketching from the cast, and on another +an impromptu sketch projet, to be completed in an hour. In addition +to these there will be competed for three of the larger and more +important regular projets, such as were made last season by the Club, +and for which two prizes are offered to those obtaining the first and +second place in point of general merit. + +The present officers and Board of Control of the Baltimore +Architectural Club are J.B. Noel Wyatt, W. Emmart, Wm. G. Nölting, +Geo. Worthington, W.M. Ellicott, W.G. Keimig, and Charles Anderson. + + * * * * * + +The last meeting of the T Square Club of Philadelphia, was one of +unusual activity. The annual election of officers and the competition +of summer sketches as called for by the Club syllabus was found to be +too much for one evening, and consequently the judging of the sketches +was postponed a week. + +The following officers were elected: President, Albert Kelsey; +Vice-President, Edgar V. Seeler; Secretary, A.B. Lacey; Treasurer, +David K. Boyd; Executive Committee, Walter Cope, Louis C. Hickman, +William L. Price. + +The summer sketches, which were judged at one of the Club's Bohemian +Nights, were of unusual quality and quantity. Walter Cope, who won +first mention, had a large collection of pencil drawings representing +the fruits of his labor in Spain. + +Walter Price (who won third place) and John Bissegger had one end of +the room covered with sketches in color and line made during a recent +trip through England, and Wilson Eyre, Jr., the winner of the second +mention, had a variety of subjects beautifully rendered on quaint +paper, and in his well-known and ever novel way. + +[Illustration: LXXV. Ferme de Turpe, Normandy.] + +Music and beer were plentiful, and had a cheering effect upon Titus, +Dull, Kelsey, and Klauder, whose summer work failed to score a +mention. + +The syllabus of the Club's work for the coming year has just been +issued and contains some features of special interest. The problems in +design are chosen with much care and the programmes are more explicit +than is usual, and will doubtless contribute to the usefulness of the +work to be done. + +The T Square Club appears to be more fortunate than some of the other +architectural clubs in having interested and succeeded in holding the +interest of a number of the stronger of the older men among the local +architects. It now numbers about one hundred and twenty members, +and its work is necessarily having considerable influence in outside +circles. + +Its example is a good one to hold up before other and less influential +clubs. + + * * * * * + +Among the architectural clubs thus far noticed in this column no +account has been taken of the clubs connected with the architectural +schools. Of these there are at present several which are doing good +and effective work, but the only one of which we have data for a +description is that connected with Lehigh University. The school of +architecture, as it is called, is not a school of architecture at all, +but of engineering (which is a very different thing), but its work +is none the less dignified or important on this account, and the +opportunity open to the students' club is in consequence a wider and +more serious one than usual if they choose to concern themselves with +artistic considerations. + +Two years ago the first class in architecture graduated from the +Lehigh University, and since that time the classes have continually +increased, until now the course is a distinct one in the curriculum +of studies of the University. The objects of the department are to +provide a thorough training in architectural engineering, with such +additional studies in history, design, and drawing as must necessarily +accompany all architectural problems. + +The first year is of a preparatory nature in which no distinctively +architectural subject is taken up, and in the second year the subjects +are those closely related to civil engineering, including a very +complete course in higher mathematics. It is in the third year that +architectural subjects are brought in, and with studies and lectures +on the architectural styles, smaller problems in design, sanitary +engineering, and theory of roofs and bridges, the full course is +opened for the fourth year, of steel construction in office buildings +(design and computations), specifications by lectures, thorough study +of ventilation, designs for roof trusses and girders, and hydraulics, +finally ending with a thesis design. To supplement this prescribed +work the students have organized the Architectural Club of the +University. The objects of this society are to distribute blue prints +to members from a growing collection of negatives owned by the Club; +to collect specimens and models of building material; to aid in +securing a students' library, and to hold monthly competitions in +pen-and-ink rendering, besides managing any of the affairs of the +architectural course in which the students as a body desire to act. +It is an organization for mutual benefits and already has made itself +felt, although only two years old. + + * * * * * + +After a summer of more or less inactivity, during which, in June, +its quarters were moved to 77 City Hall, where it is much more +conveniently located, the Cleveland Architectural Club has taken +up its work with characteristic enthusiasm, and already a vigorous +winter's work has been planned, beginning on November 14, with the +annual banquet at the Hollenden Hotel, followed by the yearly meeting +for the reports of officers and the election of new officers. + +On the evening of January 9, 1896, the first annual exhibition of the +Club will be inaugurated, to continue during the balance of the week. +This will be the first distinctively architectural exhibition ever +held in Cleveland. + +In the last competition, "An Entrance to Lake View Cemetery," the +mentions were as follows: W.D. Benes, first; Chas. S. Schneider, +second; Wilbur M. Hall, third; Geo. W. Andrews, fourth; L.R. Rice, +fifth. + +The membership of the Club is rapidly increasing, a majority of the +members of the local chapter of the A.I.A. having already become +associate members. + +[Illustration: LXXVI.

A subscription blank is enclosed. + + * * * * * + +It has been suggested by a correspondent prominently connected with +one of the principal architectural clubs of the country that a very +desirable and instructive exhibition could be made up of the year's +work of the various clubs. If collected by some concerted plan, to +include the premiated or mentioned designs in the club competitions, +and all sent to some one city or club, they could be exhibited and +then passed on to the next club in the circuit. + +Exchange of ideas and comparison of methods among the architectural +clubs is much to be desired and could not help resulting in +benefit. No more direct or easier way of opening relations of mutual +helpfulness could be found than this, and we trust that some one +will take it upon himself to take the initiative. Our correspondent +intimates that this might be the first step towards a national +federation of architectural clubs. It is rather unsafe to speculate +upon what might take place in such an event. + + + + +Reviews. + + + _Suggestions in Brickwork_ with illustrations from the + Architecture of Italy, together with a Catalogue of Bricks, + made by the Hydraulic-Press Brick Companies, Eastern + Hydraulic-Press Brick Co., Philadelphia, 1895. $3.00. + +To the architect who desires to use iron or steel in construction and +to figure out his own drawings for the purpose, nothing can take the +place of the handbooks furnished by the great iron and steel companies +to aid in this work; and the convenience of having all tables, +formulas, etc., together with a reliable catalogue of commercial +and practical possibilities, all in one little handbook is not to be +over-estimated. + +What has in the past been done for the users of constructional iron +and steel work has now been attempted in a very different field for +architects who may wish to design in brick, both plain, moulded and +ornamental. That this attempt is well considered and most thoroughly +carried out would be perfectly certain if for no other reason than for +the name of the compiler, Mr. Frank Miles Day, of Philadelphia. There +have been similar attempts made in the past, but they are crude in +comparison with the handsome volume now before us. It does not matter +that this beautifully printed and illustrated book is a perfectly +frank advertisement, put forward for purely business reasons. It has +a most important bearing upon the progress and development of the best +American architecture. + +The suggestions in designs are very largely taken from the buildings +in the north of Italy, adapted, of course, to the requirements of +modern bricks. They show at all times a most discriminating and +delicate taste and familiarity with the best architecture. + +The ostensible purpose of the book is to remedy the difficulty which +all who have attempted to use bricks in designing have experienced to +a greater or less extent, of finding forms suitable for a given space. + +The book is divided into two distinct parts, the first made up of +twenty-eight plates of designs with accompanying descriptive matter, +for arcades, loggias, doorways, windows, moulded bands, cornices, +brick mosaics, fireplaces, balconies, piers and columns, and gate +posts, all carefully drawn to scale and with the numbers of patterns +used in each case referring to the catalogue, which occupies the +second portion of the book. In the catalogue each pattern is shown +in isometric view, with shadows indicated where it will add to the +cleanness of the cut, and upon the opposite page the profile of the +brick is shown at half full size. This portion of the catalogue +is rendered much more useful than it would otherwise be, by the +classification which has been adopted. By this means it is easy to +find most any shape desired. + +The choice of the patterns themselves deserves the highest +commendation. + +[Illustration: LXXVII. Manoir d'Ango, Normandy.] + +[Illustration: SKETCH BY WILSON EYRE, JR. See The Architectural +Review, Vol. IV, No. 1.] + +The forthcoming number of _The Architectural Review_ (Vol. IV, No. 1) +will include several noteworthy features. The plates are of the same +class of subjects which has given the paper its present high standing. +The four gelatine plates are devoted to illustrating Messrs. Cram, +Wentworth & Goodhue's design for the Public Library to be erected in +Fall River, Mass. The two remaining line plates are devoted to the +Bowery Bank building in New York by Messrs. McKim, Mead & White. The +principal article in the text portion of the number is a sketch of a +trip across England from Liverpool to London by Wilson Eyre, Jr. +The delicate and, in the main, truthful reproductions of Mr. Eyre's +incomparable sketches give the article a more than common interest. +Of all American architects who have been attracted by the picturesque +features of English and French domestic work, no one has shown a +closer sympathy or been able in his sketches to render more of its +charm than Mr. Eyre. + +[Illustration: SKETCH BY WILSON EYRE, JR. See The Architectural +Review, Vol. IV, No. 1.] + +[Illustration: LXXVIII. Manoir d'Ango, Normandy.] + + + + +The "P.D's." + +(_Continued from page 123_.) [Transcriber's Note: issue 8] + + +And speaking of costumes reminds me of some very successful ones, and +particularly that of a Highlander, the whole of which was made on +the spot from the club's "props" and was complete even to a practical +bagpipe, which was composed of three tin horns, a penny whistle, a +piece of burlap, and a rubber tobacco pouch. Both in tone and looks it +was an exceedingly good imitation of the genuine article. + +One of the things that has afforded the P.D.'s a great deal of +amusement is a supposititious newspaper, wherein the members are +interviewed on any and all occasions and many interesting things +brought to light. In one of them, for instance, Ictinus confides to +the reporter that he was born in the shadow of the Parthenon. This +mixing up of one's peculiarities, habits, and nationality with those +of the illustrious individual whose name he bears, is capable of being +given many laughable twists and has been taken advantage of in many +amusing skits. + +Besides the interviews there are fashion notes, society and sporting +notes, architectural news, and receipts. Among the latter is a receipt +for making Welsh rare-bits that should be in the possession of every +one addicted to them. + +[Illustration: THE "P.D.'S" PREPARED FOR WORK.] + +The club has been regaled at various times with comic opera (with +scenery painted for the occasion), readings and recitations; and at +one of the annual dinners an illustrated history of the club and its +members was given on an ingeniously contrived miniature stage. + +Every dinner, every voyage of discovery, every reception, and in short +anything happening that would be of interest to the absent members, is +written up by some one for their edification. The P.D.'s out-Wegg Mr. +Wegg in the matter of dropping into poetry, and although its quality +cannot be presumed to approach that selected by that famous individual +for the delectation of Mr. Boffin, it being, not to mention the matter +of theme, very often afflicted with a deplorable weakness or strength +in its feet, yet it can be said of it, as in the case of Mercutio's +wound, that it serves. + +[Illustration: CORNER IN THE "P.D.'S" ROOMS.] + +Most of these literary efforts eventually find a place in the +scrapbook, and their perusal reminds us of many a joyous evening. + + "We seem to see, to taste, to hear, + Joys that have passed; who say too fleet + The rush of time? Things passed are dear." + +This, then, is a slight account of the P.D.'s, and if their doings be +branded as folly, it is to them at least a very innocent and delicious +sort of folly, and just the thing to free them from the perplexing +problems of the day and fit them to grapple with a freshened and +renewed energy those of the morrow. + + + + +Notes. + + +The new office building of the Chicago Varnish Company, now in the +course of erection at the corner of Dearborn Avenue and Kinzie Street, +Chicago, from the designs of Mr. Henry Ives Cobb, covers a plat of +ground 45 x 90 feet. It is in the style of the brick architecture of +Holland, which has been recently adopted in several instances in New +York and Philadelphia, notably by Mr. Frank Miles Day and Mr. R.W. +Gibson. It is to be built of St. Louis red pressed brick with Bedford +stone trimmings, and will be a noticeable building even in Chicago, +where there is so much of architectural interest. The interior will +be handsomely finished in natural woods. The company will occupy a +considerable part of the building, but a portion of it will be rented +for other office purposes. + +[Illustration: LXXIX. Manoir d'Ango, Normandy.] + +[Illustration: BUILDING OF CHICAGO VARNISH CO., CHICAGO.] + +Many a new building that is approaching its first winter will be found +lacking if its architect forgot the specification of the Folsom Snow +Guard. A great many buildings do not need this device, but where one +does, it needs it badly. It is so cheap, so simple and so perfectly +effective that it should be used where there is the least chance of +danger or inconvenience from snow sliding off the roof. + +The development of the kitchen range has been along certain well +defined lines, the ornament changed, new parts nickeled, dimensions +varied, etc., but it has remained the same old stove. The Walker +& Pratt Mfg. Co., of Boston, have made a move towards an entirely +different style, in their "Culinet," which is illustrated on this +page. It presents many good points. The cooking surface is at the +same height as an ordinary table. The oven is about the height of +the elbow, making it convenient of access, and greatly lessening +the danger of burning the arms in using it. The fire, broiler door, +clinker door, and ash-pan door are all in front. All holes are hot, +and the oven is heated on six sides, making it not only an even baker, +but a sure baker on the bottom. One damper does the whole regulating +business. A guard rail to keep the clothes from contact with the +heated surface and convenient towel driers are also provided. There is +no nickel finish, but solid bronze instead. These are features which +should recommend it to architects; besides which it is compact, and +occupies little floor space, durable, and made with the same care in +every detail that has characterized the Walker & Pratt goods for forty +years. It is a kitchen ornament, as well as a kitchen help. + +[Illustration] [Transcriber's Note: Lady using "Culinet."] + +"The Making of a Range" is a cleverly prepared little pamphlet, fully +illustrated, that was issued primarily for distribution from the +Mechanics' Fair (Boston) exhibit of the Walker & Pratt Mfg. Co. It +is well worth sending for, if one is interested in details of +manufacture. The "Culinet" was the only stove which was awarded a Gold +Medal at the Mechanics' Fair. + +[Illustration: LXXX.

General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. diff --git a/14987-8.zip b/14987-8.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..3b15660 --- /dev/null +++ b/14987-8.zip diff --git a/14987-h.zip b/14987-h.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..cd0481b --- /dev/null +++ b/14987-h.zip diff --git a/14987-h/14987-h.htm b/14987-h/14987-h.htm new file mode 100644 index 0000000..d9fea05 --- /dev/null +++ b/14987-h/14987-h.htm @@ -0,0 +1,954 @@ +<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" + "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> +<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> + <head> + <meta name="generator" + content="HTML Tidy for Linux/x86 (vers 1st November 2002), see www.w3.org" /> + <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" /> + <title>The Brochure Series of Architectural Illustration, Oct. 1895.</title> + <style type="text/css"> + /*<![CDATA[*/ + + <!-- + body {margin-left: 10%; margin-right: 10%;} + p {text-align: justify;} + blockquote {text-align: justify;} + h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6 {text-align: center;} + pre {font-size: 0.7em;} + hr {text-align: center; width: 50%;} + html>body hr {margin-right: 25%; margin-left: 25%; width: 50%;} + hr.full {width: 100%;} + html>body hr.full {margin-right: 0%; margin-left: 0%; width: 100%;} + hr.short {text-align: center; width: 20%;} + html>body hr.short {margin-right: 40%; margin-left: 40%; width: 20%;} + .note + {margin-left: 10%; margin-right: 10%; font-size: 0.9em;} + span.pagenum + {position: absolute; left: 1%; right: 91%; font-size: 8pt;} + .poem + {margin-left:10%; margin-right:10%; margin-bottom: 1em; text-align: left;} + .poem .stanza {margin: 1em 0em 1em 0em;} + .poem p {margin: 0; padding-left: 3em; text-indent: -3em;} + .poem p.i2 {margin-left: 1em;} + .poem p.i4 {margin-left: 2em;} + .poem p.i6 {margin-left: 3em;} + .poem p.i8 {margin-left: 4em;} + .poem p.i10 {margin-left: 5em;} + .figure, .figcenter, .figright, .figleft + {padding: 1em; margin: 0; text-align: center; font-size: 0.8em;} + .figure img, .figcenter img, .figright img, .figleft img + {border: none;} + .figure p, .figcenter p, .figright p, .figleft p + {margin: 0; text-indent: 1em;} + .figcenter {margin: auto;} + .figright {float: right;} + .figleft {float: left;} + .footnote {font-size: 0.9em; margin-right: 10%; margin-left: 10%;} + .side { float:right; + font-size: 75%; + width: 25%; + padding-left:10px; + border-left: dashed thin; + margin-left: 10px; + text-align: left; + text-indent: 0; + font-weight: bold; + font-style: italic;} + --> + /*]]>*/ + </style> + </head> + <body> + + +<pre> + +The Project Gutenberg EBook of The Brochure Series of Architectural +Illustration, Vol. 1, No. 10, October 1895., by Various + +This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with +almost no restrictions whatsoever.

We are, to be sure, looking + in all directions for suggestions, and it cannot help appearing wonderful to a + thoughtful observer how many and varied these suggestions are.</p> + <p>Our wealthy citizens are building châteaux in the style of Francis I or of + somebody else, Venetian or Florentine palaces, Roman villas, Flemish guild-halls, + Elizabethan half-timber houses. All, if tastefully and skilfully designed and placed, + have their special points of beauty and excellence, and all may in the hands of an + architect of ability be made to harmonize with our modern ways of living and the + surroundings in which they must take a part.</p> + <p>None of these models, however, are more adaptable to our ways than the country + houses of France. This, of course, should not be understood as meaning that any of + these buildings can be transplanted bodily to American soil and still be + satisfactory. Architectural borrowing of this class is never satisfactory; but no + architecture of which we have any knowledge is independent of precedent, and it only + behooves us to adopt from the experience of others those features or ideas which are + most suited to our needs. The plans and the original uses of the rooms of these + French <i>manoirs</i> may not prove directly adaptable to our ways of living, but the + general massing of the design and the rambling arrangement of plan, as well as the + picturesqueness of it all, are characteristics which can well be embodied in our + country houses. In their way, no better models can be found than the two + <i>manoirs</i> from Normandy which we illustrate in this number. They have both + suffered from the ravages of time and hard usage, and both are at present, and for a + long time have been, used as farmhouses. The Manoir d'Ango is the finer and more + important of the two, and is better preserved in some of its more interesting + features.</p> + <p>It is one of the main beauties of the charming village of Varengeville-sur-Mer, on + the north coast of Normandy. It is now converted into a farmhouse, but in it once a + celebrated privateersman of Dieppe received the ambassadors of the King of Portugual. + There are still many evidences of the former dignity and grandeur in its present + degradation.</p> + <hr /> + <span class="pagenum"><a name="page148" id="page148"></a>[pg 148]</span> + <div class="figcenter" style="width:100%;"> + <a href="images/brochure2.jpg"><img width="100%" src="images/brochure2.jpg" + alt="LXXIV.

Ferme de Turpe, Normandy.</h3> + </div> + <br /> + <br /> + + <hr /> + <span class="pagenum"><a name="page149" id="page149"></a>[pg 149]</span> + <p>Ango was strictly a <i>manoir</i> in the French sense, that is, a residence of the + second class—not a château, such as Chambord or Blois.</p> + <p>The principal part of the building consists of but one story with an open gallery + beneath, supported by an arcade with columns bearing finely carved caps ornamented + with female heads, angels, etc.</p> + <p>In the interior as well as on the exterior may be seen fragments of sculpture + which show much refinement. In one of the rooms of the tower a monumental mantel + carved in stone bears in its centre the bust of an old man having in his hand a globe + surmounted by a cross, the imperial emblem. This may be the portrait of one of the + founders of the Ango family.</p> + <h4>LXXIII to LXXVI.</h4> + <h4>FERME DE TURPE, NORMANDY.</h4> + <p>The Ferme de Turpe is situated near the town of Neuchatel-en-Bray, famous for its + cheese. It has fewer interesting details than the Manoir d'Ango and is in even poorer + repair, but in massing and general picturesque effect it offers many suggestions + which can be utilized to advantage in our country houses.</p> + <p>Of these four views very little need be said. The charming picturesqueness of the + two general views is sufficient excuse for presenting them, but they contain much + more to the student of architecture who cares to look for it. The two detailed views + give an excellent idea of the simple, straightforward methods of the builders.</p> + <h4>LXXVII to LXXX.</h4> + <h4>MANOIR D'ANGO. NORMANDY.</h4> + <p>This building was erected between the years 1530 and 1542. Its general design and + especially its detail are of the François I type, and very beautifully + executed, as will be seen from the larger scale details. The materials as indicated + are stone and brick.</p> + <p>In Benoist's La Normandie Illustrie a remarkably interesting circular brick + dove-cote is shown in the courtyard of this <i>manoir</i>, but it does not appear in + any of our views, and may have been demolished since M. Benoist's sketches were made + in 1852. Its walls were decorated with colored brick, laid in bands and diaper + patterns.</p> + <h2>Club Notes.</h2> + <p>The Baltimore Architectural Club commenced its active work for the season on the + first of October. It has its rooms in the Wilson Building, Saratoga and Charles + Streets, which are always open for the use of its members, and there will be regular + meetings every Thursday evening during the winter and spring. At these meetings + various subjects of interest will occupy the attention of the members, both of a + practical and æsthetic character.</p> + <p>At one meeting of each month there will be an informal talk or lecture on some of + the mechanical, constructive or sanitary questions connected with architecture.</p> + <p>On one evening there will be sketching from the cast, and on another an impromptu + sketch projet, to be completed in an hour. In addition to these there will be + competed for three of the larger and more important regular projets, such as were + made last season by the Club, and for which two prizes are offered to those obtaining + the first and second place in point of general merit.</p> + <p>The present officers and Board of Control of the Baltimore Architectural Club are + J.B. Noel Wyatt, W. Emmart, Wm.G. Nölting, Geo. Worthington, W.M. Ellicott, W.G. + Keimig, and Charles Anderson.</p> + <hr /> + <p>The last meeting of the T Square Club of Philadelphia, was one of unusual + activity. The annual election of officers and the competition of summer sketches as + called for by the Club syllabus was found to be too much for one evening, and + consequently the judging of the sketches was postponed a week.</p> + <p>The following officers were elected: President, Albert Kelsey; Vice-President, + Edgar V. Seeler; Secretary, A.B. Lacey; Treasurer, David K. Boyd; Executive + Committee, Walter Cope, Louis C. Hickman, William L. Price.</p> + <p>The summer sketches, which were judged at one of the Club's Bohemian Nights, were + of unusual quality and quantity. Walter Cope, who won first mention, had a large + collection of pencil drawings representing the fruits of his labor in Spain.</p> + <p>Walter Price (who won third place) and John Bissegger had one end of the room + covered with sketches in color and line made during a recent trip through + England,</p> + <hr /> + <span class="pagenum"><a name="page150" id="page150"></a>[pg 150]</span> + <div class="figcenter" style="width:100%;"> + <a href="images/brochure3.jpg"><img width="100%" src="images/brochure3.jpg" + alt="LXXV. Ferme de Turpe, Normandy." /></a> + <h3>LXXV. Ferme de Turpe, Normandy.</h3> + </div> + <br /> + <hr /> + <span class="pagenum"><a name="page151" id="page151"></a>[pg 151]</span> + <p>and Wilson Eyre, Jr., the winner of the second mention, had a variety of subjects + beautifully rendered on quaint paper, and in his well-known and ever novel way.</p> + <p>Music and beer were plentiful, and had a cheering effect upon Titus, Dull, Kelsey, + and Klauder, whose summer work failed to score a mention.</p> + <p>The syllabus of the Club's work for the coming year has just been issued and + contains some features of special interest. The problems in design are chosen with + much care and the programmes are more explicit than is usual, and will doubtless + contribute to the usefulness of the work to be done.</p> + <p>The T Square Club appears to be more fortunate than some of the other + architectural clubs in having interested and succeeded in holding the interest of a + number of the stronger of the older men among the local architects. It now numbers + about one hundred and twenty members, and its work is necessarily having considerable + influence in outside circles.</p> + <p>Its example is a good one to hold up before other and less influential clubs.</p> + <hr /> + <p>Among the architectural clubs thus far noticed in this column no account has been + taken of the clubs connected with the architectural schools. Of these there are at + present several which are doing good and effective work, but the only one of which we + have data for a description is that connected with Lehigh University. The school of + architecture, as it is called, is not a school of architecture at all, but of + engineering (which is a very different thing), but its work is none the less + dignified or important on this account, and the opportunity open to the students' + club is in consequence a wider and more serious one than usual if they choose to + concern themselves with artistic considerations.</p> + <p>Two years ago the first class in architecture graduated from the Lehigh + University, and since that time the classes have continually increased, until now the + course is a distinct one in the curriculum of studies of the University. The objects + of the department are to provide a thorough training in architectural engineering, + with such additional studies in history, design, and drawing as must necessarily + accompany all architectural problems.</p> + <p>The first year is of a preparatory nature in which no distinctively architectural + subject is taken up, and in the second year the subjects are those closely related to + civil engineering, including a very complete course in higher mathematics. It is in + the third year that architectural subjects are brought in, and with studies and + lectures on the architectural styles, smaller problems in design, sanitary + engineering, and theory of roofs and bridges, the full course is opened for the + fourth year, of steel construction in office buildings (design and computations), + specifications by lectures, thorough study of ventilation, designs for roof trusses + and girders, and hydraulics, finally ending with a thesis design. To supplement this + prescribed work the students have organized the Architectural Club of the University. + The objects of this society are to distribute blue prints to members from a growing + collection of negatives owned by the Club; to collect specimens and models of + building material; to aid in securing a students' library, and to hold monthly + competitions in pen-and-ink rendering, besides managing any of the affairs of the + architectural course in which the students as a body desire to act. It is an + organization for mutual benefits and already has made itself felt, although only two + years old.</p> + <hr /> + <p>After a summer of more or less inactivity, during which, in June, its quarters + were moved to 77 City Hall, where it is much more conveniently located, the Cleveland + Architectural Club has taken up its work with characteristic enthusiasm, and already + a vigorous winter's work has been planned, beginning on November 14, with the annual + banquet at the Hollenden Hotel, followed by the yearly meeting for the reports of + officers and the election of new officers.</p> + <p>On the evening of January 9, 1896, the first annual exhibition of the Club will be + inaugurated, to continue during the balance of the week. This will be the first + distinctively architectural exhibition ever held in Cleveland.</p> + <p>In the last competition, "An Entrance to Lake View Cemetery," the mentions were as + follows: W.D. Benes, first; Chas. S. Schneider, second; Wilbur M. Hall, third; Geo.W. + Andrews, fourth; L.R.

I. + +OCTOBER, 1895. + +No. 10 + + + + +FRENCH FARMHOUSES. + + +As it is the purpose of THE BROCHURE SERIES to cover as wide a field +as possible in choice of subject matter for its illustrations, and at +the same time hold rigidly to the idea of furnishing only what will +be useful to its subscribers, it has seemed desirable to present +something a little nearer our everyday life than the Italian work +which has thus far formed the greater part of the plate matter. + +The domestic architecture of France and England has naturally served +as a model for a great deal of our American work, and especially is +this noticeable during the present generation in the close relation +between the French chateaux and the more pretentious American +residences, as witness the recent productions of the late Mr. Hunt, +which have just been published since his death. We are, to be +sure, looking in all directions for suggestions, and it cannot help +appearing wonderful to a thoughtful observer how many and varied these +suggestions are. + +Our wealthy citizens are building chateaux in the style of Francis +I or of somebody else, Venetian or Florentine palaces, Roman +villas, Flemish guild-halls, Elizabethan half-timber houses. All, +if tastefully and skilfully designed and placed, have their special +points of beauty and excellence, and all may in the hands of an +architect of ability be made to harmonize with our modern ways of +living and the surroundings in which they must take a part. + +None of these models, however, are more adaptable to our ways than the +country houses of France. This, of course, should not be understood +as meaning that any of these buildings can be transplanted bodily to +American soil and still be satisfactory. Architectural borrowing of +this class is never satisfactory; but no architecture of which we have +any knowledge is independent of precedent, and it only behooves us to +adopt from the experience of others those features or ideas which are +most suited to our needs. The plans and the original uses of the rooms +of these French _manoirs_ may not prove directly adaptable to our +ways of living, but the general massing of the design and the rambling +arrangement of plan, as well as the picturesqueness of it all, are +characteristics which can well be embodied in our country houses. In +their way, no better models can be found than the two _manoirs_ from +Normandy which we illustrate in this number. They have both suffered +from the ravages of time and hard usage, and both are at present, and +for a long time have been, used as farmhouses. The Manoir d'Ango is +the finer and more important of the two, and is better preserved in +some of its more interesting features. + +[Illustration: LXXIV. Ferme de Turpe, Normandy.] + +It is one of the main beauties of the charming village of +Varengeville-sur-Mer, on the north coast of Normandy. It is now +converted into a farmhouse, but in it once a celebrated privateersman +of Dieppe received the ambassadors of the King of Portugual. There are +still many evidences of the former dignity and grandeur in its present +degradation. + +Ango was strictly a _manoir_ in the French sense, that is, a residence +of the second class--not a chateau, such as Chambord or Blois. + +The principal part of the building consists of but one story with +an open gallery beneath, supported by an arcade with columns bearing +finely carved caps ornamented with female heads, angels, etc. + +In the interior as well as on the exterior may be seen fragments of +sculpture which show much refinement. In one of the rooms of the tower +a monumental mantel carved in stone bears in its centre the bust of an +old man having in his hand a globe surmounted by a cross, the imperial +emblem. This may be the portrait of one of the founders of the Ango +family. + + +LXXIII to LXXVI. + +FERME DE TURPE, NORMANDY. + + +The Ferme de Turpe is situated near the town of Neuchatel-en-Bray, +famous for its cheese. It has fewer interesting details than the +Manoir d'Ango and is in even poorer repair, but in massing and general +picturesque effect it offers many suggestions which can be utilized to +advantage in our country houses. + +Of these four views very little need be said. The charming +picturesqueness of the two general views is sufficient excuse +for presenting them, but they contain much more to the student of +architecture who cares to look for it. The two detailed views give an +excellent idea of the simple, straightforward methods of the builders. + + +LXXVII to LXXX. + +MANOIR D'ANGO. NORMANDY. + + +This building was erected between the years 1530 and 1542. Its general +design and especially its detail are of the Francois I type, and very +beautifully executed, as will be seen from the larger scale details. +The materials as indicated are stone and brick. + +In Benoist's La Normandie Illustrie a remarkably interesting circular +brick dove-cote is shown in the courtyard of this _manoir_, but it +does not appear in any of our views, and may have been demolished +since M. Benoist's sketches were made in 1852. Its walls were +decorated with colored brick, laid in bands and diaper patterns. + + + + +Club Notes. + + +The Baltimore Architectural Club commenced its active work for +the season on the first of October. It has its rooms in the Wilson +Building, Saratoga and Charles Streets, which are always open for the +use of its members, and there will be regular meetings every Thursday +evening during the winter and spring. At these meetings various +subjects of interest will occupy the attention of the members, both of +a practical and aesthetic character. + +At one meeting of each month there will be an informal talk or +lecture on some of the mechanical, constructive or sanitary questions +connected with architecture. + +On one evening there will be sketching from the cast, and on another +an impromptu sketch projet, to be completed in an hour. In addition +to these there will be competed for three of the larger and more +important regular projets, such as were made last season by the Club, +and for which two prizes are offered to those obtaining the first and +second place in point of general merit. + +The present officers and Board of Control of the Baltimore +Architectural Club are J.B. Noel Wyatt, W. Emmart, Wm. G. Noelting, +Geo. Worthington, W.M. Ellicott, W.G. Keimig, and Charles Anderson. + + * * * * * + +The last meeting of the T Square Club of Philadelphia, was one of +unusual activity. The annual election of officers and the competition +of summer sketches as called for by the Club syllabus was found to be +too much for one evening, and consequently the judging of the sketches +was postponed a week. + +The following officers were elected: President, Albert Kelsey; +Vice-President, Edgar V. Seeler; Secretary, A.B. Lacey; Treasurer, +David K. Boyd; Executive Committee, Walter Cope, Louis C. Hickman, +William L. Price. + +The summer sketches, which were judged at one of the Club's Bohemian +Nights, were of unusual quality and quantity. Walter Cope, who won +first mention, had a large collection of pencil drawings representing +the fruits of his labor in Spain. + +Walter Price (who won third place) and John Bissegger had one end of +the room covered with sketches in color and line made during a recent +trip through England, and Wilson Eyre, Jr., the winner of the second +mention, had a variety of subjects beautifully rendered on quaint +paper, and in his well-known and ever novel way. + +[Illustration: LXXV. Ferme de Turpe, Normandy.] + +Music and beer were plentiful, and had a cheering effect upon Titus, +Dull, Kelsey, and Klauder, whose summer work failed to score a +mention. + +The syllabus of the Club's work for the coming year has just been +issued and contains some features of special interest. The problems in +design are chosen with much care and the programmes are more explicit +than is usual, and will doubtless contribute to the usefulness of the +work to be done. + +The T Square Club appears to be more fortunate than some of the other +architectural clubs in having interested and succeeded in holding the +interest of a number of the stronger of the older men among the local +architects. It now numbers about one hundred and twenty members, +and its work is necessarily having considerable influence in outside +circles. + +Its example is a good one to hold up before other and less influential +clubs. + + * * * * * + +Among the architectural clubs thus far noticed in this column no +account has been taken of the clubs connected with the architectural +schools. Of these there are at present several which are doing good +and effective work, but the only one of which we have data for a +description is that connected with Lehigh University. The school of +architecture, as it is called, is not a school of architecture at all, +but of engineering (which is a very different thing), but its work +is none the less dignified or important on this account, and the +opportunity open to the students' club is in consequence a wider and +more serious one than usual if they choose to concern themselves with +artistic considerations. + +Two years ago the first class in architecture graduated from the +Lehigh University, and since that time the classes have continually +increased, until now the course is a distinct one in the curriculum +of studies of the University. The objects of the department are to +provide a thorough training in architectural engineering, with such +additional studies in history, design, and drawing as must necessarily +accompany all architectural problems. + +The first year is of a preparatory nature in which no distinctively +architectural subject is taken up, and in the second year the subjects +are those closely related to civil engineering, including a very +complete course in higher mathematics. It is in the third year that +architectural subjects are brought in, and with studies and lectures +on the architectural styles, smaller problems in design, sanitary +engineering, and theory of roofs and bridges, the full course is +opened for the fourth year, of steel construction in office buildings +(design and computations), specifications by lectures, thorough study +of ventilation, designs for roof trusses and girders, and hydraulics, +finally ending with a thesis design. To supplement this prescribed +work the students have organized the Architectural Club of the +University. The objects of this society are to distribute blue prints +to members from a growing collection of negatives owned by the Club; +to collect specimens and models of building material; to aid in +securing a students' library, and to hold monthly competitions in +pen-and-ink rendering, besides managing any of the affairs of the +architectural course in which the students as a body desire to act. +It is an organization for mutual benefits and already has made itself +felt, although only two years old. + + * * * * * + +After a summer of more or less inactivity, during which, in June, +its quarters were moved to 77 City Hall, where it is much more +conveniently located, the Cleveland Architectural Club has taken +up its work with characteristic enthusiasm, and already a vigorous +winter's work has been planned, beginning on November 14, with the +annual banquet at the Hollenden Hotel, followed by the yearly meeting +for the reports of officers and the election of new officers. + +On the evening of January 9, 1896, the first annual exhibition of the +Club will be inaugurated, to continue during the balance of the week. +This will be the first distinctively architectural exhibition ever +held in Cleveland. + +In the last competition, "An Entrance to Lake View Cemetery," the +mentions were as follows: W.D. Benes, first; Chas. S. Schneider, +second; Wilbur M. Hall, third; Geo. W. Andrews, fourth; L.R. Rice, +fifth. + +The membership of the Club is rapidly increasing, a majority of the +members of the local chapter of the A.I.A. having already become +associate members. + +[Illustration: LXXVI.

If collected by some concerted plan, to +include the premiated or mentioned designs in the club competitions, +and all sent to some one city or club, they could be exhibited and +then passed on to the next club in the circuit. + +Exchange of ideas and comparison of methods among the architectural +clubs is much to be desired and could not help resulting in +benefit. No more direct or easier way of opening relations of mutual +helpfulness could be found than this, and we trust that some one +will take it upon himself to take the initiative. Our correspondent +intimates that this might be the first step towards a national +federation of architectural clubs. It is rather unsafe to speculate +upon what might take place in such an event. + + + + +Reviews. + + + _Suggestions in Brickwork_ with illustrations from the + Architecture of Italy, together with a Catalogue of Bricks, + made by the Hydraulic-Press Brick Companies, Eastern + Hydraulic-Press Brick Co., Philadelphia, 1895. $3.00. + +To the architect who desires to use iron or steel in construction and +to figure out his own drawings for the purpose, nothing can take the +place of the handbooks furnished by the great iron and steel companies +to aid in this work; and the convenience of having all tables, +formulas, etc., together with a reliable catalogue of commercial +and practical possibilities, all in one little handbook is not to be +over-estimated. + +What has in the past been done for the users of constructional iron +and steel work has now been attempted in a very different field for +architects who may wish to design in brick, both plain, moulded and +ornamental. That this attempt is well considered and most thoroughly +carried out would be perfectly certain if for no other reason than for +the name of the compiler, Mr. Frank Miles Day, of Philadelphia. There +have been similar attempts made in the past, but they are crude in +comparison with the handsome volume now before us. It does not matter +that this beautifully printed and illustrated book is a perfectly +frank advertisement, put forward for purely business reasons. It has +a most important bearing upon the progress and development of the best +American architecture. + +The suggestions in designs are very largely taken from the buildings +in the north of Italy, adapted, of course, to the requirements of +modern bricks. They show at all times a most discriminating and +delicate taste and familiarity with the best architecture. + +The ostensible purpose of the book is to remedy the difficulty which +all who have attempted to use bricks in designing have experienced to +a greater or less extent, of finding forms suitable for a given space. + +The book is divided into two distinct parts, the first made up of +twenty-eight plates of designs with accompanying descriptive matter, +for arcades, loggias, doorways, windows, moulded bands, cornices, +brick mosaics, fireplaces, balconies, piers and columns, and gate +posts, all carefully drawn to scale and with the numbers of patterns +used in each case referring to the catalogue, which occupies the +second portion of the book. In the catalogue each pattern is shown +in isometric view, with shadows indicated where it will add to the +cleanness of the cut, and upon the opposite page the profile of the +brick is shown at half full size. This portion of the catalogue +is rendered much more useful than it would otherwise be, by the +classification which has been adopted. By this means it is easy to +find most any shape desired. + +The choice of the patterns themselves deserves the highest +commendation. + +[Illustration: LXXVII. Manoir d'Ango, Normandy.] + +[Illustration: SKETCH BY WILSON EYRE, JR. See The Architectural +Review, Vol. IV, No. 1.] + +The forthcoming number of _The Architectural Review_ (Vol. IV, No. 1) +will include several noteworthy features. The plates are of the same +class of subjects which has given the paper its present high standing. +The four gelatine plates are devoted to illustrating Messrs. Cram, +Wentworth & Goodhue's design for the Public Library to be erected in +Fall River, Mass. The two remaining line plates are devoted to the +Bowery Bank building in New York by Messrs. McKim, Mead & White. The +principal article in the text portion of the number is a sketch of a +trip across England from Liverpool to London by Wilson Eyre, Jr. +The delicate and, in the main, truthful reproductions of Mr. Eyre's +incomparable sketches give the article a more than common interest. +Of all American architects who have been attracted by the picturesque +features of English and French domestic work, no one has shown a +closer sympathy or been able in his sketches to render more of its +charm than Mr. Eyre. + +[Illustration: SKETCH BY WILSON EYRE, JR. See The Architectural +Review, Vol. IV, No. 1.] + +[Illustration: LXXVIII. Manoir d'Ango, Normandy.] + + + + +The "P.D's." + +(_Continued from page 123_.) [Transcriber's Note: issue 8] + + +And speaking of costumes reminds me of some very successful ones, and +particularly that of a Highlander, the whole of which was made on +the spot from the club's "props" and was complete even to a practical +bagpipe, which was composed of three tin horns, a penny whistle, a +piece of burlap, and a rubber tobacco pouch. Both in tone and looks it +was an exceedingly good imitation of the genuine article. + +One of the things that has afforded the P.D.'s a great deal of +amusement is a supposititious newspaper, wherein the members are +interviewed on any and all occasions and many interesting things +brought to light. In one of them, for instance, Ictinus confides to +the reporter that he was born in the shadow of the Parthenon. This +mixing up of one's peculiarities, habits, and nationality with those +of the illustrious individual whose name he bears, is capable of being +given many laughable twists and has been taken advantage of in many +amusing skits. + +Besides the interviews there are fashion notes, society and sporting +notes, architectural news, and receipts. Among the latter is a receipt +for making Welsh rare-bits that should be in the possession of every +one addicted to them. + +[Illustration: THE "P.D.'S" PREPARED FOR WORK.] + +The club has been regaled at various times with comic opera (with +scenery painted for the occasion), readings and recitations; and at +one of the annual dinners an illustrated history of the club and its +members was given on an ingeniously contrived miniature stage. + +Every dinner, every voyage of discovery, every reception, and in short +anything happening that would be of interest to the absent members, is +written up by some one for their edification. The P.D.'s out-Wegg Mr. +Wegg in the matter of dropping into poetry, and although its quality +cannot be presumed to approach that selected by that famous individual +for the delectation of Mr. Boffin, it being, not to mention the matter +of theme, very often afflicted with a deplorable weakness or strength +in its feet, yet it can be said of it, as in the case of Mercutio's +wound, that it serves. + +[Illustration: CORNER IN THE "P.D.'S" ROOMS.] + +Most of these literary efforts eventually find a place in the +scrapbook, and their perusal reminds us of many a joyous evening. + + "We seem to see, to taste, to hear, + Joys that have passed; who say too fleet + The rush of time? Things passed are dear." + +This, then, is a slight account of the P.D.'s, and if their doings be +branded as folly, it is to them at least a very innocent and delicious +sort of folly, and just the thing to free them from the perplexing +problems of the day and fit them to grapple with a freshened and +renewed energy those of the morrow. + + + + +Notes. + + +The new office building of the Chicago Varnish Company, now in the +course of erection at the corner of Dearborn Avenue and Kinzie Street, +Chicago, from the designs of Mr. Henry Ives Cobb, covers a plat of +ground 45 x 90 feet. It is in the style of the brick architecture of +Holland, which has been recently adopted in several instances in New +York and Philadelphia, notably by Mr. Frank Miles Day and Mr. R.W. +Gibson. It is to be built of St. Louis red pressed brick with Bedford +stone trimmings, and will be a noticeable building even in Chicago, +where there is so much of architectural interest. The interior will +be handsomely finished in natural woods. The company will occupy a +considerable part of the building, but a portion of it will be rented +for other office purposes. + +[Illustration: LXXIX. Manoir d'Ango, Normandy.] + +[Illustration: BUILDING OF CHICAGO VARNISH CO., CHICAGO.] + +Many a new building that is approaching its first winter will be found +lacking if its architect forgot the specification of the Folsom Snow +Guard. A great many buildings do not need this device, but where one +does, it needs it badly. It is so cheap, so simple and so perfectly +effective that it should be used where there is the least chance of +danger or inconvenience from snow sliding off the roof. + +The development of the kitchen range has been along certain well +defined lines, the ornament changed, new parts nickeled, dimensions +varied, etc., but it has remained the same old stove. The Walker +& Pratt Mfg. Co., of Boston, have made a move towards an entirely +different style, in their "Culinet," which is illustrated on this +page. It presents many good points. The cooking surface is at the +same height as an ordinary table. The oven is about the height of +the elbow, making it convenient of access, and greatly lessening +the danger of burning the arms in using it. The fire, broiler door, +clinker door, and ash-pan door are all in front. All holes are hot, +and the oven is heated on six sides, making it not only an even baker, +but a sure baker on the bottom. One damper does the whole regulating +business. A guard rail to keep the clothes from contact with the +heated surface and convenient towel driers are also provided. There is +no nickel finish, but solid bronze instead. These are features which +should recommend it to architects; besides which it is compact, and +occupies little floor space, durable, and made with the same care in +every detail that has characterized the Walker & Pratt goods for forty +years. It is a kitchen ornament, as well as a kitchen help. + +[Illustration] [Transcriber's Note: Lady using "Culinet."] + +"The Making of a Range" is a cleverly prepared little pamphlet, fully +illustrated, that was issued primarily for distribution from the +Mechanics' Fair (Boston) exhibit of the Walker & Pratt Mfg. Co. It +is well worth sending for, if one is interested in details of +manufacture. The "Culinet" was the only stove which was awarded a Gold +Medal at the Mechanics' Fair. + +[Illustration: LXXX.
