This somewhat In elegantly expressed motto was the rule of conduct of John L. Sullivan, honest and dauntlesH old pugilist. In his professional dealings with the public he lived up to it. And the public trusted him. And the public trusts the STAR thcutor. It knows the STAR secures the greatest photoplays that money can buy, and exhibits them at one price always. Thus tonight it presents charming little Marguerite Clark, In a play of circus and canal-Mint life, entitled "Still Waters."
