The man arranges for his pretty stenographer Mary [played by Lois Wilson] to attract his son so that he will have to work to be able to court her. When the stenographer and the man's son fall in love and decide to marry the man disinherits his son! Together with Mary and Ambrose Peale, a theatrical agent, Rodney opens a business and begins to advertise without a product. After he buys his father's soap and successfully packages it with his own label, Cyrus tries to buy out the company for $50,000, but he cancels the deal when he discovers that the soap came from his own factories. Meanwhile, Rodney, not knowing of the cancellation, has written a $25,000 check. To protect him, Cyrus secretly has a Marshall Field department store representative give Rodney a phony order, but when the soap sells well because of Rodney's advertising, and the store places more orders, Cyrus deals with Rodney, who now marries Mary!) starring Bryant Washburn, Lois Wilson, Walter Hiers, Frank Currier, and Clarence Geldart.

Important Added Info: Note that glass slides were designed to be put in a special projector that would project the image onto a movie screen (they use exactly the same concept as 35mm slides). This slide is the kind that has two panes of glass that are taped together with black tape around all four edges (front and back), typical of many older glass slides. We have provided a high quality scan of the image, but we have not taken a photo of the slide, because there would really be very little to see! Condition: very good to fine.
