THE PARAMOUNT THEATRE.
To-night will be thY last opportunity of seeing Jack Pickford in his great success "The! Dummy." To-morrow, commencing at 2 p.m., the Famous Players will present Marguerite Clark, in a beautiful picture "The Valentine Girl," which caused a sensation when it was released in America. Marion Morgan, the daughter of a professional gambler, is portrayed by Marguerite Clark. It has been the dream of Marion's short life to meet her father, - whom she had never Been. When she meets him he proves to bo a professional gambler and a leader of a band of crooks. His great wealth enables him to provide everything for her, but still he cannot make her happy, because he cannot explain why the other little girls refuse to play with her. The hungry appeal of the child for love and sympathy, and her pathetic endeavours to find the bright side of life in the big shadow of calamity, make her one of the most delightful and wistfully-appealing characters that Marguerite Clark has given the photoplay public.
