Effects of Dancing
A case which may interest medical men has occurred in Wellington, says the New Zealand Times. A young woman, aged about 17, has been known as a champion waltzer. She attended a dancing-room in Te Aro very frequently, and took prizes for long and steady waltzing, remaining up longer than all competitors in this dizzy round dance. After months of this practice in the evenings.sbe fell ill. or rather became subject to frequent epileptic fits, and has continued so during about three months. Thus the girl who after being a champion waltzer has now became unfit to earn her living in any occupation.
