According to Advice (1913)

He is a likely young chap, and doesn't hate himself at all. He can't understand why the ladies do not recognize his many charms. He reads a newspaper article that convinces him that he lacks confidence in his wooing and that a woman always loves a brave, bold admirer. In the Park, he walks fearlessly up to a nursemaid and tries to captivate her. She hands him the baby's nursing bottle and leaves him wondering what it all means. He meets a chorus girl and intrepidly approaches her. She hands him a paper bag and tells him to help himself. He draws out a lemon. The girl laughs and trips away. He is puzzled. As he goes further, he fares worse. He makes one final effort to conquer the ladies. He is so beat up, he is obliged to take to his bed, where he has plenty of time to learn that it does not pay to be too precious or strenuous in the art of making love.
