12 min.  F.S. There is no originality in this sketch.  To the woman makes two changes of costume.  There is a little singing and some fairly good acrobatic work by the men, but the comedy upon which they rely to make the act interesting, is lacking.  They use all the old laugh-getters – the slap-stick, snap rubber in the face, the boquet with the string, the coat-iron cigar etc.  Got very few laughs and went off with a small hand.
