Enjoyable entertainment

"A comedy with a plot that is refined and ingenious, by Mrs. Tom Coleman, produced by George D. Baker, John Bunny, Josie Sadler, Flora Finch and Charles Eldridge compose a cast whose names guarantee enjoyable entertainment. The vehicle given them embraces the theory of eugenic marriage; imagine the two extremes, Bunny and Finch, here is where the laughs come in. Bunny weighs in at 360 pounds at Sweatems' Sanitarium, where he goes to reduce. At the end of a week he has gained one pound. If you enjoy laughs, see the finish. - The Moving Picture World, November 14, 1914..."
