The new vol ume in llie z.irtag series, "Journeys iu the Antipodes, ' gives a very graphic description of the wonderful physical training of those girlst whose ages vary from 8 to 20 years The curious and subtle feat of picking up a bit of straw with the eyelids can lie learned only by llie youngest of them, who are made to practice it m order to render them flexible in every part of the body There are two long rows of benches, one a little higher than the other On ihe lower is a r,iv of little girls, and on tho upper bench are laid tine, pol ished bits of straw. At the sound of ai,drtini the little girls all together bend buck lbs hetul and ock until liiey touch the bit of straw, which. with wrfndcrful dexterity, they secure between the corners of the eyelids The cuu dance M the most graceful and poetic of their dances A row of young women, wun a uer or cups on their heads, take their places in the center of the gymnasium. A burst of joyous music ' follows On hearing this they simultaneously, with piili tary precision, kneel down, fold llieii haiitlsaiid bow their heads unlit their foreheads almost touch the polished marble floor, keeping the cups steadily on their honds bv some Hiarvelous jerk of the neck, tlieu. r suiltleiily springing to their feet. Uiev describe a succession of rapid and intricate cir cles, keeping lime to the music with their urms, head and feet, : Next follows a miracle of art such as may be found oulv among people of the highest physical training The music swells into a rapturous tumult.
