The Manicurist and the Mutt (1913)
James Hicks, a barber, finds that business is bad and he sees that only some decided innovation will attract customers. He therefore writes to Clippem's School of Barbers, requesting the management to send him an attractive lady tonsorial artist. In a few days Marcella arrives on the scene, but the way she handles the first customer makes it imperative that Hicks dispense with her services. She walks up the street and is engaged as a manicurist by Hicks' competitor. Marcella is a flirt and soon has a number of love affairs. Seeing that she must make some disposition of the several cases, she decides to realize as much as possible. As a result each of her four suitors presents her with a diamond ring. She makes an appointment with each for eight o'clock on a certain night. When eight o'cock arrives Marcella boards a train, but Tom, Dick, Harry and Joe wait in their respective trysting places, nervously fingering further tributes. Finally each resolves to visit the shop and learn what is detaining Marcella. The meeting of the four victims enables each "to see a great light."
