The Waitress and the Boobs (1915)
Although business is bad for Hicks, a patent medicine fakir, the voice of his partner, Delia, makes it worse. Every time she tries to sing, the crowd runs for shelter. The two are growing mighty hungry, when Hicks learns that the Greasy Vest Restaurant is in need of a waitress. At Hick's suggestion, Delia disguises herself as a Dutch maid and lands the job. Her false blond locks and smile captivate the heart of every one of the Greasy Vest's patrons. Even Butts, the proprietor, shows a desire for the first time in his long and checkered career to travel in double harness. One by one, Delia promises to wed Alkali Pete, Dutchie, Blondie, Curlie and Butts. She makes them first promise to present her with a diamond ring. Since Hicks owns the only diamond ring in town. Pete purchases it and presents it to Delia. Delia promptly passes it back to Hicks, who sells it to each of the suitors in turn. On the day set for the weddings, the suitors dross in their Sunday best and set out for the church. Each is astounded to find the others waiting at the church for the same girl. Then comes the discovery of how they have been hoodwinked. With one accord the swains rush to the railroad station. Their worst wears are confirmed. On the platform of the outgoing train the men see Delia and Hicks cheerfully waving good-bye.
