THE EARLY TOWNS IN EUROPE
The CathedraIs Were Magnificent
in Architecture.
BEGINNING ELEVENTH CENTURY
The Small, Clumsy Huts of That
PERIOD in Those Countries Gave
Place to Wonderful Transform.
alton. Dotted With Rich.
Cities. Grand Cathedrals.

At the beginning Of tho eleventh
century the towns Of Europe were small
clusters of miserable huts, adorned but
with low, clumsy churches, the build
ers Of which hardly knew how to make
IN arch, says the Nineteenth Century.
The arts, mostly consisting of some
weaving and forging, were in their in
fancy; learning was found in but few
inconsistencies. Three hundred and fifty
years later the very fuce of Europe had
been changed. The land was dotted
with rich cities, surrounded by i'm
mcnse thick walls, which were cmbol-
lishcd by towers and gates, each of
them work of nrt in itself.
The cathcdrals, conceived in grand
style and profuscly decorated, lifted
their bell towers to the skies, display
ing purity of form and holiness of
imagination which we now vainly
strive to attain. The crafts and arts
had risen to degree Of perfection
which We Gun hardly boast of having
superseded in many directions if the
inventive skill OF the worker and the
superior finish of his work be appre.
Grated higher than rnpidity of fabrica-
ton. The navics OF the free cities fur
rowed in all directions the northern
and southern Mcditcrrancnn; one effort
more and they would cross the oceans.
Over large tracts of land wcll-bcinR
had taken the place of misery; learning
had grown and spread.
Tho methods of science had been
elaboratcd the basis of natural philoy,-
ophy had been. laid down and the way
had been paved for oil the mechanical
inventions of wh:ch our own times are
SO proud. Such were the magic changes
accomplished in Europe in less than
four hundred years. And the losses
which Europe sustained through the
loss of its free cities can only be under
stood when we compare the seven
tcenth century with the fourteenth, or
thirteenth. The prosperity which
formerly characterized Scotland, Ger
many, the plains of Italy, was gone.
The roads had fallen into an abject
state; the cities were depopulated. Ia Dor
was brought into slavery. art had van
ishcd, commerce itself was decaylng.
