DANCE IN ANCIENT GREECE
Mere Acrohatic Stunts" Looked Up
on as Inferior by People of
Olden Time.

y passage in HerodOtus tells US
with what contempt the Greeks
treated mere acrobatic dancing,
and how inferior it was considered
the highest art, says Marcelle
ARA Hincks, in the Nineteenth
Century. \ certain Hippoclei-
DIES having been asked to show one
OF the many accomplishments
which entitled him to become
the husband of the daughter of
the tyrant of Sicyon, proceeded
to display himself in the dance;
and having commenced with Il
stately measure, he then wished
to show his wonderful agility, and
so well did he succeed that CHS
themes, the tyrant, angrily ex-
claimed: "SOn of Tisander, you
have danced away your marriage"
refusing TO have a son-in-law who
was so little of an artist that he
could make a boast of his mere
skill. Socrates, too, had great
dislike to the wonderful tricks
which dancers could perform with
their bodies, and thought them
very ugly. What would have been
his disgust could he have seen
some of our modern contortions--
the high-kicking the skirt dance,
the 'splitw AS in all great art,
the Greeks in their dancing made
use of mechanical means only in
so far as they could assist in car
rying out the artists inspiration.
The true artist should not be ham
pered by any technical difficulties,
he must be an absolute master of
"technique," but never should he
allow that ''technique' to be the
end and aim of his art; by doing
so he forfeits all claim to the title
of artist in the real and higher
sense OF tnat much abused word.
Looking, then, at the subject
from this point of view, we can
see the gulf which separates mod
ern dancing from the Greek dan
cling. The modern term denotes
something entirely mechanical,
however pretty and pleasing our
dancing masters contrive to make
it by having rhythmical acrobatic
feats performed by beautiful exec
Dancing, in the Greek
sense, must be interpreted quite
differently; it is rhythmical move
ment-and so far it is mechanical
but it is also pantomimic. 1t
is the imitation of words by ges-
lures; the bodily expression of d
feeling.

COOKING WITH LIQUID AIR.
How Experiments on Vegetables and
Animal Life Have Proved That
They May B. Cooked" Cold.

That meat may be cooked" BY
intense cold has been demonstrat-
ed by experiments with liquid air,
says the Literary Digest. That a
less degree of cold may produce
the same effect on vegetables,
and that freezing potatoes or
fruit may make them more edible
than before is asserted by Dir.

says of a ''frost-b bitten potato

Similar results were obtained
with cranberries, onions and

that there was a difference. as
cooking by heat destroys the
polarization.

Few people probably know what it
is that enables flies TO walk On tho

their ability 10 do 30 was due to the
fact that each Of their feet Is d rninia-

found to be unsound, and it was then
explained that the fact was made pos
sible by means Of ciscous substance
which exuded from the hairs on their
feet.
This theory also was abandoned as
being only partly accountable for the
facts; and the perferred explanation
is that flies are enable to walk up
