Way the Dance Changes.

The ailment that brought the waltz
and the two-step to their lingering
death was monotony. Each had one
step, one tempo, and that is not
enough. So the dances shriveled up
and died from lack of exercise. A
few years ago the world entered upon
one of its periodical rebellions against
artificial conventions, and the people
returned to the world-old, semi-forgot-
ten recreation, dancing. The revival
of dancing was accompanied by a
clamor for variety.-Woman's Home
