Develops a number of interesting situations
by deickemeyer2014-07-19

"A Gaumont comedy which develops a number of interesting situations. A wife asks for a certain ring, but is refused. She writes a letter to herself, which must go through her husband's hands. He refuses to give it to her. She calls an official and he is forced to do it. Jealousy absolutely controls him and he rushes away to find her reading her letter. He demands it, and finds only a brief note which says that men who will not buy their wives rings are wretches, or words to that effect. He succumbs and buys the ring. As a break in a moderately heavy program this film is quite satisfactory...."
