"Du Horry," in which Theda Eara does hok in out biiilir.nt work, will appear at tho Sheirv theatre todny and tomorrow. Thia play Jb the most wonderful creation cf its kind that has ever been presented on tho films. All that Misfl Hnra has dnnp. only gives n suggestion of the charm and elaborateness of this great pro duction. The story Is a historic one, which many have attempted to writo. and It has even been seen upon tlta stage but ft remained for the films nnd MiKS Bara to give to the world tho revelation of the character of thw wonderful woman. It Is known, t"iU the groat actress spent a long tf ill's In studying the times of Louis XV and the woman who provided them, before alio attempted tho creation of this photoplay. There is no doubt that sho has succeeded In a marve lous manner in grasping tho sub' ject, nnd In putting it upon the screen. Ono of the most remarkable fea tures of tho play Is tho dresses thnt Mfss Ha I'd woars, which were speci ally designed by hor, aftor long con sul I al Ions, wit h oxperts on tho per iod of Louis XV. Theso dress nro peculiar, however, in ono way. They might oasily appear in drnwlng rooms of today. Every one of them is a Btudy of tho art of womanly adornment, nnd Is a thing of beau ty Jn ItFelf. Miss Burn has discovered and re vealed n thousand- little details of the womanly toilette which will be immensely Interesting to every wo man. Those secrets are revealed upon the screen in a most fnrtdnal-j irg way,' and make the film addl-j tionally attractive to all whom worn en charm.
