Editorial content. „Manufacturers`Advance Notes

      ,A Woman‘ (Essanay).

      Charlie Chaplin takes a stroll in a park where he sees

a man, his wife and daughter seated on a bench. The husband

sees a pretty girl passing and smiles at her. She smiles

back and he makes an excuse to his wife to get away and follows

her.The girl inveigles him into playing a game of blind

man‘s buff, and when he is securely blindfolded, robs him of his

pocketbook.

      Chaplin offers to lead the man back to his wife, but instead

takes him to the sea and pushes him in. He then introduces

himself to the wife and daughter and they take him home with them.

When the husband gets back he is introduced to the new

found friend. He recognizes Chaplin‘s voice and a fight is started.

Chaplin, after losing part of his wearing apparel, escapes

by running upstairs.

      Presently he reappears sans moustache, dressed in the

daughter‘s clothing. The flirtatious husband then tries

to make up to Chaplin and stirs his wife‘s jealousy. Another

battle is started and the wife discovers that Chaplin

is not a woman. He finally is hurled out into the street and wends

his sad way homeward. Released July 12.“
