Love in an Apartment Hotel (1913)

In the apartment hotel lived the aspiring maid, whose solicitude maintained order in the bachelor's apartment. He was her ideal, and the all-adoring bellboy was firmly but gently given to understand that maids who read "Heliotrope Glendening's Advice to Young Ladies" look higher than ice-water toters. A compromising complication with an unexpected visit from a beautiful lady, quite convinces the aspiring one that wealthy young bachelors might be the grandest men ever, but when it comes to the crucial test, their aspirations are not for chambermaids. Science influences his actions so much that he gets into trouble with the police. When they are through with him he lands in a hospital, but as the clock nears the midday hour the thought of the bomb at home sends him scurrying from the hospital, with patients, nurses, and orderlies in pursuit. He reaches home breathless, to find that Mrs. Pietro has cooked the pig and that the bomb was merely a test to prove his loyalty to the tenets of the society.
