The doe, soft brown eye* aglow with
love, tread lightly, daintily over the
aoft brown leaves. Hesitating a mo
ment, she threw back her shapely head,
but scented no danger, acented only the
sylvan fragrance of the cooling vephyra
—she continued upon her love mlaalon.
The winter threw across hla shoulder
the cold steel barrel of hi* gun. “Sow
for aome real sport,” he said.
The doe aped on through the foreata
on the wings of Iqve. She had heard
the call of the hart! recognised It—how
beautiful wn* the foreat, how clear the
streams, how bright the sun, how blu*
the skies—ahe recognised the call of the
hart and her blood pulsed with the
pure sweet ecstacy of first love.
The hunter, with gun across hla knee,
sat retting. Slowly he took.from hla
mouth the smoking pipe, placed It be
side him, leaned forward and listened.
He whistled a low whistle.
The doe heard through the woodland
mate the soft notes. She quickened
her pace to match the'quickened beats,
of her pulse. Straight toward the
hunter she sped. ,
The hunter stood, gun at aim. Tht
crackling of twigs came closer. , The
nearby bushea parted.
A beautiful pair of aoft brown eyes
reflected the glint of flame, then for
ever cloaed.
The hunter hurried toward the place
where lay the doe. He looked down
on her—
“Fashioned so slenderly,
Young and ao fair.”
She tvoa, too', small, 'too young, , He
turned away In queat of other game.
The hart far up In the mountains
whistled until nightfall, then went In
quest of the one he wns to wed.

DANCE SEEN IN PARIS
AS A % PERSONIFICATION
OF AN ORIENTAL RELIGION
Ella Wheeler Wilcox Describes Beautiful
Dance-Poem, “The Rhoda,” Created
by an American Girl.
By ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.
Dancing ha* alway* appealed to me
as one of the most beautiful methods
of expressing the poetry and joy of
life.
It rank* in my mind with painting,
sculpture, literature and music.
I can recall but one American woman
who has created a new thing In any
of the art* distinctly and exquisitely
new, and that one—Loir Fuller, with
her wonderful Are and calla Illy dance*.
When “The Man" and I arrived in
Pari* It was our Intention to »ee all
that wns interesting on the French
stage In the way of dancing, und to be
amused, pleased, shocked or entertain
ed. a* the result might be.
One sultry September night, after we
hnd unpacked our trunk*, we set out
for a stroll down the boulevards, and,
seeing many people enter a music hall
and purchase ticket*, we followed and
obtained excellent seat* from which we
watched an amusing farce nnd some
special features, with only Idle curios-
^Then suddenly we became alert. The
unusual stage setting attracted our at
tention, and wo procured a program
nnd found that we were to see the
beautiful dance poem, The Rhnda, cre
ated. or rat ho r evolved, by*hn American
girl, Miss Ruth Dennis.
Redly Uplifting.
I had heard much of this dance, but
had never seen It, nnd nmv, here In
Paris, where I had expected to wltnese
only suggestive and risque dances, 4
was treated to one of the most delight
ful enjoyments of my Hfo in watching a
wholesome and charming American girl
float through her exquisite creation.
The “Rhada" is a dance and a hymn,
a prayer, a picture and an eyte poem all
in one.
It affected “The Man" like a magic
spell, and rendered him oblivious to a<l
mundane things, *ven my own pres
ence, while It was.being performed.
It tilled hint with a desire for a life
of calm contemplation and spiritual
evolution.
"It is better than a sermon and great
er than any aatred music ever sung or
played." Ii& said when It was over.
Which Is an unusual remark to hear,
coming out of a Parisian music nnd
dance hall, surely.
go Interested were we in this color
ful and artistic creation that I asked
Miss Dennis to come and talk to me
about her work. 8he came, and I found
her a sweet, bravo American girl, with
distinctive, something worth while,
ever since she could remember, and so,
•hi* desire always In mind, the
‘Rhnda had been evolved after two
years’ concentration nnd study.
It all came about In a very simple,
yet very wonderful way. and because of
her own deep earnestness and unswerv
ing devotion to her Ideal, and because
she put the very boet of herself Into
her work. The public was elect!tiled
by her finished creation when It was
produced In America.
It was new, It was poetical. It wns an
np|*ul to the soul nn well a* to the eve.
Xow Hu rope Is thrilled with it.
It has been, tremendously successful
In Paris, nnd Berlin /and Monte Carlo
ate clamoring for It. King Kdwnrd
has given hi* word of approval, and
laurels are falling on the fair brow
of the slender American dancer, who
becomes in her work the personifica
tion of the spirit of the ancient religion
of India, the religion which has de
generated, as do all religions eventual
ly, but which In Its purity* held the es
sence of ull Truth, all Knowledge.
So here Is another woman who has
created a new thing In art, and again
in the realm of Terpsichore.
l*el her name go Into the hall <'
fame.
She has elevated her art and given
the world a neuutififl work.
