Very familiar

A low comedy number with Peggy Pearce and Dick Smith in the leads. The rube arrives in the city, is picked up by the adventuress and lured to a hotel. He is fleeced in a poker game and considerable excitement follows. This type of plot is very familiar and is handled here in average fashion. - The Moving Picture World, March 27, 1915

Fresh from his home town was Reuben, and when the card experts laid eyes on him, they sent up a hymn of thanksgiving. Here was some really, truly "easy picking" and times were hard. Reuben, however, had ideas of his own regarding the national indoor game, and it was not until Gertie, the siren, was turned loose on him, that the gamblers felt at all easy about prying him loose from the old stocking. A dispute between Gertie and the gamblers over the spoils, however, was Reuben's salvation, as Gertie informed the police and they interrupted the game. This did not stop Reuben from getting hands on the jack-pot and exiting through the skylight. When the excitement had subsided, the farmer was the one who had the best of things. Even the gamblers acknowledged that he was a devil, both abroad and "in his own home town."
