B. F. KEITH'S-Vaudeville.

One of the most pretentious produc-
tons in vaudeville is shown this week at
keith's, under the title Temptation
Arman Kaliz and Company are the pro-
ducers and they probably got their idea
from Experience. Temptation is
billed as an allegorical operetta and in
six scenes shows the temptation of man
from the Garden of Eden to the present
music hall with it's wine and dancers.
The scenery is exceptionally well
chosen and its elaborate detail adds to
the beauty of the production. The
group of symbolic dancers help to make
the Eden scene effective. while other
members of the company add spice and
richness to the other scenes. The

some women demand them," mother

will grow into a new, complete and
