In this production Marie Doro portrays the part of a warm-hearted Irish girl, who would rather sacrifice •ed own reputation than the happiness of two innocent children, and siie puts -o much charm, so much understanding into her portrayal of the part that the illusion is complete, and one can almost believe that it is real. Intending patrons are requested to note that this programme will only be screened to.light and to-morrow.
