Z. Ori1in of the Ballet.

As long ago as the middle Of the six.
teenth century the ballet was in exist
ence in Italy, where it was so popular
that members Of the royal family and
mobiles took part in it. The ballet was
first introduced in France in the reign
of Louis XIII, and both that monarch
and Louis XVI occasionally took part in
its dances In it's earliest presentation
the ballet appeared dexterously in COM
bination with the other theatrical acts.
About the year 1900 women made their
first appearance in the ballet, which up
to that time had been performed exclu:.
sively by men, as was the case also with
plays and operas, but no woman ballet
dancer Of any note appeared until 1890.
