A little gem of its kind

There is not a doubt about the success of this picture; it pleased the audience and made it shout with laughter. In it Lawrence McCloskey has provided an entirely fresh story from which Arthur Johnson has produced a comedy that is a little gem of its kind. The scenes in Annie's home when she is entertaining her new beau, the "gentleman," are the best and truest of their kind that we have seen. There were plenty in the audience who plainly showed that they knew what they were laughing over and their pleasure in it was shown by the hearty way they took it. Lottie Briscoe deserves a big sheaf of praise; but the producer who handled these scenes even more, for it is clear from the ensemble work of the whole cast that there was someone there who knew just what was wanted. Arthur Johnson plays Annie's lover, a mill hand; Howard Mitchell, the detective who knows she is an heiress and makes love to her as a "gentleman;" Charles Brandt, her father, and Ray and Albert Hackett, her two brothers. There are some good roughnecks, among whom are Jack McDonald and Ford Beck. The photography is excellent. - The Moving Picture World, March 8, 1913
