Old Sweethearts of Mine, a Phantasy in Smoke (1909)

A young man enters his cozy library, sits in an easy chair before the fireplace, takes a cigarette from the table and, dozing off, dreams of his sweethearts of former days. He sees in turn his summer girl, a small brunette, accompanying him to the tennis court; then at a fancy ball another girl, blonde and tall. They are sitting under the palms in the conservatory, where he proposes and is refused. In the next scene he is waiting in the woods to keep an appointment with a plump little country girl. They meet and engage in a pretty love scene. Next he makes love to a bathing girl: then his dream changes and, by way of diversion, the cigarettes on the table hop from the box and execute all manner of funny stunts. The young fellow awakes with a start, looks about the room, realizes it was all a dream, lights another cigarette and dozes off once more. A lady enters the room, tiptoes over, kisses him on the forehead and, as he awakens, puts her hands over his eyes. He feels for the wedding ring, guesses who it is and fondly embraces his wife.
