Their Happy Little Home (1915)
Sidney Worth and his wife have purchased a bungalow, and because of the fact that it is unpainted they get a reduction. Happy as they are, the fact that Sidney's pecuniary condition will not permit him to paint the bungalow causes him not a little uneasiness. Irma Worth's father visits the bungalow and comments on the cozy appointments and the nice furniture. But he opines that the place should be painted, and without further discussion goes down in his pocket for his checkbook. Irma and he go to the paint store and decide on white as the best color. They order the work to be started on Monday. In the meantime Sidney is paid a back debt and goes to a paint store and orders the bungalow painted. He picks out brown as the most pleasing color. The work is to start Monday morning. Both Irma and he withhold their plans from each other. Monday morning, the party leaves on an auto trip, and as they leave Irma tells the stupid maid that the painters will be on hand early and Sidney also tells her the same. Very soon, Brown and his crew of brown-suited men arrive with ladders, etc. The maid directs them to the left side of the house, and they start work with the brown paint. When and his men in white overalls and jumpers arrives with the paraphernalia and they are directed to the right side of the house. They start work with the white paint. The maid dips a finger into the brown paint and then into the white and is horrified. Brown soon finds out that there is another crew at work on the place, and vice versa, and the painters mix it up, not the paint. The maid rushes about hysterically and wonders what it is all about. Irma and Sidney return as the fight is at its height, and much explanation is needed. The house on the white side has been bedaubed with brown handprints and the brown side with white. Irma and Sidney embrace in grief and the maid is shown looking at her white and brown fingers, still wondering.
