EVERYBODY'S.
A WOMAN'S TEMPTATION.
A REMARKABLE FOX FEATURE,
A phdto-drama of special interest entitled " Woman's Temptation," from the book "Anna Karenina," by Leo Tolstoi, -will be presented for the first time at Everybody's Theatre to-night. "Anna Karenina" is famous to students of feminine psychology the world over. Till Count Leo Tolstoi created this wonderful character there had never be«n such a revelation of the complex workings of the modern woman's soul. Anna Karenina ranks far in advance of Ibsen's Nora or Heda Gabler,' as an exotic heroine of the ultra modern type. She has be,en the text for countless essays, sermons, and speeches and controversy has raged hotly about the !"woman who dared." In some quarters Anna has been held up as the prototype of the misunderstood woman, in others she. has been hotly assailed as a modern Magdalen. At any rate, whatever angle her character is viewed from, it is one bo full of strange complexities that it must give the lightest of thinkers pause for deep consideration. Certainly it is not a oharacter to be dismissed lightlyHandled by the Fox producers is it altogether a remarkable picture.
