The Framed Miniature (1917)

Eric, an artist, loves Rosalia Dale, the beautiful one, but Arnold Dale, her father, does not approve. Therefore some obstacles. A stable boy, working for Dale, seeks revenge for fancied wrongs and steals a pearl necklace and a framed miniature of Rosalia. He throws away the miniature and keeps the pearls. When the theft is discovered, Dale thinks Eric has stolen them both. Eric has found the miniature, which he thinks is a token of Rosalia's love. After some months Dale and Rosalia visit Eric's studio and the father sees the framed miniature of Rosalia, from which Eric has painted a portrait. He touches a hidden spring and the real pearl necklace is found, the one stolen by the stable boy being but paste. Dale then makes no further objections to the courtship of the artist and his daughter.
