The slack wire is set up in a semi-woodland scene, with the girl, a dandy looker, hanging by her neck in a suspended loop. The man enters and performs several new stunts in balancing
on a slack wire, one somewhat on the contortionist order, where he gets his arms, legs and head through a couple of hoops, being well appreciated. It is announced by the girl as the origination of her partner. He is on the wire throughout the turn, the girl assisting entering on the suspended strap like a pendulum, to remove the necessary articles or to bring them in. Opener on better time.
