The Auditorium.

Only one more day remains of the run of The Forbidden Path. at the Autlitorium theatre. Admirers of Theda Bara and her work, need to hurry, therefore, if they would see the noted artiste in one of the finest pieces of work she has given us for months.
 In this production. Miss Bara gives Us one of the roles the public has learned to like so much, the kind of thing she did before the day of her big Gordon Edwards productions, Cleopatra and Du Barry. She is once more a tenement girl-a captivating, antrancing tenement girl, who rises rom her lowly position to one of com fort and even luxury.
 Her fall from this eminence is just as swift as her rise to it. She sinks even lower than her former level.
 Then comes again the sudden rise, IS she meets the man who has brought her to misery. She four shes in wealth and power. But she assumes her rags again to mete out justice to him.
 Miss Bara has never before risen to Iramatic heights so far above the common level Her interpretation of he role of Mary Lynde is one of the masterpieces which the screen gives us only too seldom.
