Already part of the Russian press

this town. because it represented
the principal industry of the place,

London, July 25.-TOc dancing is
not comparatively modern French
invention. as is popularity supposed,
since a piece of Egyptian pottery
over 1000 years old, now exhibited
by the Institute of Archaeology, shows
a girl taking such steps i'll modern
ballet style.
The antiquity or toe dancing is
only one or the things revealed by
the Egyptian collection brought
from Meroc in the Sudan by Prof.
John Garstang. Stones of astrono-
mical buildings there show consid-
cradle knowledge of the heavens. On
one stone was sketched an instru-
ment for measuring angles and TAX
ing elevation, while another drawing
tends to show that an effort was
made to measure the circumference
OF the moon. Certain marks meas
uring the shadows OF the sun indi-
cate an effort to get the latitude and
