REVIEW, The Morning Telegraph, June 7, 1914:

"Ruth worked for Carl Hendriks in his little toy shop, and in time he grew to love her. Just as he was about to speak to her the news came that she had inherited a large sum of money. She went to the city, and there, after the first glamour of society wore off, she continually thought of him. She returns to the little shop, and learning that he is ill volunteers as a nurse, and he breaks all records for a quick recovery."

REVIEW, The Moving Picture World, June 27, 1914:

"The situation which starts this love story is unconvincing. But it develops into a pretty romance with good 'pipe dream' quality. It is not very significant, but will be acceptable, for the staging, acting and photography are of excellent quality. The author is Philip Lonergan."
