INJURIOUS MODERN DANCING.

What Physician Thinks of the Art as
Now Praeticed.
The ART of dancing as practiced by the
Greeks aud Romans was nsefnl form of
gymnastics that they held in great esteem,
regarding it rightly as q means eminently
suited TO develop the organism. We
must confess, however,, that 10 our lines
this art has degenerated, says writer in
the European edition of the New York
Herald, and can be called unhealthy in
the great majority Of cases and not in all,
as dancing in the open air IN the daytime
may have decided merits. This is never
true for the balls given in rooms filed
with people, overheaied by a quantity Of
lights, and with The atmosphere thorough
ly poisoned by the very causes without
which ball cannot be brilliant.
1t is scarcely necessary to refer TO the
dust Of all kinds, 10 the innumerable mi
crobes that The dancers send flying into
the air, nor need we speak of the untime-
ly strain imposed on the organism which,
at a time when it ought TO be at rest, is
on the contrary over excited. What
greater mistake than the midnight supper
at which the most unwholesome things
arc eaten and drunk? The guests bolt in
a very short time food that is generally
heavy and washed down with strong
wines, and this is scarcely over before
the dancing is resumed, against the most
elementary rules of common sense and
hygiene. Nor is this all il is not only
the body alone that is concerned, as tho
mind has its share in this fatigue by the
vivid emotions produced by the CONVEX
sation, music and flowers.
1t is quite usual after ball to fiud that
the action of the heart shows traces Of ft-
tigue, particularly Ia delicate young wo-
men, who complain Of a vague sensation
o. uneasiness, sadness and even Of pain,
and are, 10 word, in peculiar condi
ton that is uot yet disease nor is it health
much nearer the former than the latter.
Diseases caused by dancing are com.
moner in women than In men. Tho most
frequent are laryngitis. particularly in
women who talk great deal while dane
ing colds, bronchitis and sometimes
pneumonia and pleurisy.
Dancing should be absolutely forbidden
in all cases OF consumption, which may
assume a very rapid form from this
cause it is counter indicated, as well, in
all cases of heart trouble.
Physicians are unanimous in condemn
ing dancing as it is understood at present,
but it might be made hygienic exercise
If il were executed in the open air and 10
the daytime, and II the amount Of exer-
else were 10 proportion to the strength OF
the dancers. Like all other bodily exer
cises, il should be used 10 moderation.
