Not particularly strong

The two drug clerks send the girl some hair remover and hair restorer. She turns this over to her friends at a house party and the girls use it with astonishing results. The photography is good, but the humor is not particularly strong. - The Moving Picture World, November 14, 1914

Two drug clerks, employed in the same store, are rivals for the hand of a wealthy girl. The girl is indifferent to their attentions. Her parents have a decided preference, each for a different clerk. The clerks call at the girl's home with the intention of proposing, but their entire evening is taken up by the parents, much to the amusement of the daughter and her maid. During the evening it develops that the father can use some hair grower. The clerks promise each to send some preparation, but neither knows of the other's promise until the next day, when the daughter sends for it. She thinks the preparations can be used to advantage by herself. Believing the bottles are for the parents, each clerk changes the contents of his rival's bottle, with the intention of getting even with the opposing parent. That evening, at a party given by the daughter, the falsely labeled preparations are tried. The supply runs out and the maid is sent for more. The father and mother are in the drug store when the maid arrives. The clerks, having learned from the parents that the preparations delivered to the maid have not reached them, question the maid. The maid confesses. When the clerks realize that their adored love is likely to grow a beard and mustache and become bald-headed, they are wild. The parents follow the clerks to the house. The clerks try so persistently to enter the house that the police decide to accompany them. They meet a crowd of young women, who, in their excitement, have used the bottles contrary to their labels, and believe themselves to be disfigured forever. The girls faint dead away. The maid finally succeeds in reviving them. Explanations are in order, and everyone is satisfied except the parents, who throw the clerks out.
