The Mazurka Should Be Danced In Very Fast Tempo

CThis is one Of 8 series Of articles
especially written for The FL PasO
Herald by Mile, Anna PaVIOFa, the
greatest living premiere danseuse, who
has posed with her dancing partner,
LuWrenu NOvizOff, for each figure.
The dances to be explained and Illus
trated are those now in vogue in So
ciety baIIrOOms.)
4 S I explained in the previous ar
~ ticle on the difficult though de-
= = lghtfuI PoIlza-MazOurka, the
dance moves so swiftly that there is
no space for tarrying. We began with
the two dancers facing each other,
head and shoulders bent forward, the
man clasping his lady's left hand with
his right each partner standing with
feet together The position is not so
very different from that of a Splinter
about to leave the starting line.
The first actual step comes with the
first beat of the music-the dancers
standing throughout three beats. or a

full measure-preparing foC the kick
out. Then, from that pose the couple
may swing into the Outer-swing. I
would state, at this juncture, that the
Polka-Mazourka goes one-tWO-three,
one-tWO three, very, very fast, and one
step follows another with such rapid
ity that to grasp the dance in its en-
tirety it will be found helpful to as
semble all the photographs at the
conclusion of the series on this dance
and, after refreshing the memory from
the text, observe the execution of all
the steps and figures from start to
finish.
Now, in the momentary position as
sumed in figure A of the photographs
herewith shown, please notice that both
dancers are resting on their left feet,
their right toes pointing, The hands
nearest are clasped, the outside arms
held partially aloft in a sort of flour
ish. The poses as presented by the
photograph are faithful in making
clear what is necessary in this dance.
Continuing the Outer-sWing, the

dancers are able to move naturally
away from each other. This puts them
instantly into poise for the back-tO-
back position, which is held for a
brief instant as indicated by the pho
tograph in figure B. AS may be gath
cred, excellent judgment is required

to allow for the proper space between
dancers in this figure, for a slight de-
Walton is sufficient to ruin the effect.

and sixth steps in this fascinating
dance-Copyrigh 1913, by the Nc

A Man and His Wife.


In the downtown Offices Of the
Quinby company and in the particular
room which may be called the head
quarters OF the Quinby army, two men
were sitting late L winter afternoon
The one was Henley himself. now
chairman Of the company. a bit stouter
than when we first met him twelve
years ago, his arrogance q little less
evident in manner albeit time had not
altered the fact. The other was .
youngish man whose thin bony face
and hands and freaks OF premature
gray hair spoke OF physical frailty.
1t was common knowledge In tho
Quinby company that no n was
more welcome in heniey's Office than
the young superintendent whom the
masters influence had put in com
mand OF the big new open-hearth
plant. 1t was even suspected that
Henley had taken Truitt in with him
in his sp~eculations.
At the end OF q long discussion Of
company affairs Henley pressed a but
ton. His secretary appeared from the
adjoining Office.

The secretary returned with the 40

and banded 1t to Mark. The latter
studied It carefully. questioned certain
items. questioned the explanation and
finally accepted them. Henley smiled

The Measure Of q Man. e,s
When he met Unity again, he had
been In Bethel for more than two
weeks.
He had started out for the morning
turn on his crutches. to test his re-
turning strength. and before he quite
realised It the village lay behind him.
He swung along for some two hundred
yards farther; then let himself care
fully down on the roadside.
He sat there for a long time, barring
his head to the summer sunshine.
This IL very good indeed" 1t
would have been almost iawless but
for one thing-he was rather lonely;
he felt the need for some one to share
the day with him.
He had his wish. Down the valley
road appeared 4 buggy drawn by a
lazy heavy-footed horse Of the sort dis
tinguished as safe for women" From
within the buggy Mark caught the
CLEAN of q white shirtwaist and q
sailor hat. Even before the vehicle
drew near enough for recognition. he
knew the passenger for Unity.
A slight tremor passed over him. To
meet the embodiment OF q shadow by
whom one has been tilted-or whom
one has jilted?-is at least mildly ex-
citing.
A slight tightening Of the reins was
sufficient to stop that horse.
Hello, Unityt" Mark felt that this
greeting fell short Of the dramatic
proprteties.
"Oh! How DO you dor she an.
