Plot

The first story involves a young bride's marital problems which are solved by a serene widow who recounts her long and happy married life; the second concerns a gold prospector who has a dream that sets him to right on material riches.

This short is comprised of two different short stories published in "Liberty Magazine." This short only runs eleven minutes, so neither story takes longer than six minutes to tell. The first, by Charles H. Gale, deals with a young married woman who comes to an elderly widow in order to unburden her marital difficulties. The latter recounts her long and happy married life (but does it quickly), which serves to enlighten and inspire the younger woman. And it employs an O. Henry twist. The second story, by John P. McCarthy, who also directed this short, recounts a dream of a prospector who has gone into the desert to find gold with a fellow-prospector. The store points out the pseudo-value of material riches.—Les Adams <longhorn1939@suddenlink.net>
