Arvi looks and speaks like a Frenchman.
The front of the setting resembles a hallway of a country cottage.
The Grecian Temple.
Rightly handled Arvi's Mystery should become a big act for vaudeville.
If Signor Arvi wants his act to create comment, which it surely will, if the program and himself do not talk so much.
The turn has two strong points; the illusionary portion, and the opportunity to present a "posing act"
By arranging the poses for the public to talk about at the same time they are discussing how the thing is done, Arvi can hand hisemlf the bun as the owner of the best illusion in point of worth for the box office now in America.
