Dances of Death.

So Paris and other great cities are dancing mad; beautiful women with new dances, dances in shameless abandon, which a few years ago would not have been tolerated, are in evidence. One old theater goer, referring to a class of dances which are delighting Paris, speaks thus of the emotions awakened by them: "It is a degenerating emotion, too, and so it is said this fever of dancing that has seized hold of Paris is causing it to degenerate faster than anything else." They are literally dances of death, death to morality and soul purity.
