A Village Romance (1912)
John Cummins, a wealthy society man, while out in his auto, discovers he is out of gasoline. He stops at a country store and meets Flo Page, the daughter of the proprietor. It is a case of mutual attraction, causing many a heartache to Si, the clerk, who adores Flo. Cummins manages to have sundry excuses for visiting the little general store, and finally realizes he is head over heels in love with the girl. Cummins, while purchasing cigarettes from Flo, so arouses the anger of Si, who is carrying a bag of potatoes, that he deliberately drops the bag upon Cummins' foot, and that worthy gentleman proceeds to make capital of the injury to remain with the Pages for a week, nursed tenderly by Flo. Si, finding an envelope dropped by Cummins, calls at his (Cummins') club, and asks if he lives there, that he has stolen his sweetheart. Cummins' friends accompany Si back to the village and find Cummins sweeping out the store, having usurped the clerk's position. Cummins is unmercifully "kidded" by his fashionable friends, and Flo and her father, imagining that Cummins has been deceiving them, become very indignant, and he is ordered out, but eventually succeeds in proving that he is genuinely in love with Flo, who reciprocates.
