The same newspaper office set as “Her Only Way,” but instead of a reporter there is a dramtic critic, stenographer and a boy. Miss Booth plays the author of a play and applies to be a stenographer. She plots to have the critic write a review of the play before seeing it. Charles Deland plays Horatio Hammer, the critic, and Harry Pilcer, the office boy.
Still seems to think that the exhibition of her undergarments in the hands of the maid is funny.This indeicency is dragged on without reason.
Revised their latest sketch and added the better part of the finale to the new act.
Employs a wonderfully mobile face and every gesture has meaning.
Has some assistance from Frances Byrne. Opens with a street scene with Miss Apel coming from a ball with a large amount of white stockings showing. She is accosted by a man who accepts her proffer of a kiss but does noy perceive that the grotesque features are a mask. There is a change to a two room hotel set where the flirtation continues. The girl gets caught on the transom when the chair falls beneath her while she is spying on the man. Finishes with the exchange of two wrongly delivered suitcases.
“Two dwarfs…neither is deformed.” The woman is daity and fairylike.
The Irish comedian assumes a comedy female part in a girl’s seminary and is invited by one of the young women to sleep with her. Gertie DeMilt is temporarily out of the cats but is replaced by a blonde girl in a green costume with soulful eyes.
As neat and attractive as a old time fairy tale. The comedy scene between the dude doll and toy soldier was liked the best. Hattie Burdell was a very lovely wax doll.
A complete melodrama in two scenes with an effective and exciting finale for each. The second scene shows a very realistic horse race. The scenes are laid in the jockey’s room and the stretch. A jockey is induced to sell out the race but his plan is foiled by his half-brother who is also a rider. Taylor Granville as “Crook” Chambers wins the honors of the piece. Dixie Gerard as the owner of the stable failed to play with force or power. Mechanically the horse race is witout fault.
