Miss Aubry's Love Affair (1912)

The celebrated comedienne, Miss Aubry, is told by her physicians that her nerves are in a bad way and that she will have to seek the pine woods and rough it a bit. She repairs to a well-known summer resort camp, where, unconsciously, she upsets the well-laid plans of a fond father whose son is engaged to his young ward. Upon Miss Aubry's arrival in camp the headstrong son falls head over heels in love with the actress without her seeking it. The poor young girl and her guardian are made very unhappy over this unexpected defection in their plans. At the suggestion of his ward, the father calls on the actress and begs her to restore the boy's affections to their legitimate bent. With a roguish twinkle in her eye, she suggests to the father that he accomplish the desired result by "cutting out" his boy himself. The father, not being too old to enjoy a joke, consents to the plan, with the result that he not only wins the boy's arrant affections back for his ward, but also wins a wife for himself.
