Books of Middle Ages.

Christian Science Monitor: In the
Middle Ages. when the only writing
that was done was carried on by the
monks, the manuscripts became very
beautiful. The lettering was done in
gold and colored ink. and sometimes
the whole parchment was colored a deep
/ purple. The letters were made large
and elaborate in form and design, and
on almost every page of the book We're
pictures painted to illustrate the story.
Sometimes one man would spend years
and years working on the same book.
This method Of writing a whole book
out by hand went on until the middle of
the Fourteenth Century, when printing
was discovered by three men in Maintz
Germany. The early printed copy and
manuscript book looked much alike, be-
cause the printers type was modelled
on handwriting, and certain decora-
tions were often added by hand. Then
in these first printed books, there were
no title-pages. or anything to tell by
whom or where they were printed. All
this was put in paragraph at the END
Of the book. The first title-page known
was in 1470 and the book containing It
was printed at Cologne, Germany
Illustrations appeared as early as 146i,
and these were what are called wood
cuts.
The early printed books were very
large and heavy. especially the Bibles.
They were bound together with
wooden boards, which were sometimes
covered with leather. The paper in
the books was strong and heavy, too.
There were only few small books
made at this time. but they grew in
popularity. of course, until, in the
Seventeenth Century. they became
very small, and were printed on very
thin paper The use OF pasteboard for
binding, instead Of wood, also helped
to make books smaller and lighter. At
this time. too. the bindings became
elaborate. and gold tooling was much
used.
After 1850. there was steady Inn
provement in printing, partly because
the printing presses were made better.
Now the custom Of lettering books on
the back came into use. Many books
were daintily bound in gay embroie'
cries Of colored silks and gold and
silver thread. The eighteenth Cen
tury continued 10 improve the paper
and the type OF books, and the illustra-
tions became much finer. Common
books were now bound in paper
boards.
This brings us up to the Nineteenth
Century, when books came 10 have
the appearance that we are all familiar
with today Illustrations finally came
TO be photographs usually. As for type
writing. and shorthand, and such mol
ern inventions for saving time they
are so well known 10 US that they no
longer seem interesting. But, Just 10
recall them. makes us see what a long
way we have 70 come from painting
on pebbles and writing on papyrus
as did the anclents.

patroness Of the Princess Pats

Princess, who will be thirty-one years

There are left only a handful Of the
