Mr. Marker and his beloved, Miss Whitcomb, were trim and slender. One evening, fate arranged that Mr. Watkins should take Miss Brown to the same theater to which Mr. Marker was taking Miss Whitcomb. They met on the streetcar on their way to the theater. There was some difficulty about seats. After fate had thus stirred things up, the little blind god got busy. Like grew a bit tired of calling to like. Instead, Mr. Watkins went calling on Miss Whitcomb, and Mr. Marker went calling on Miss Brown. The upshot was that the aforementioned little blind god plus fate decided to strike a happy medium instead of two extremes in weight, and in accordance with their decision. Miss Whitcomb married Mr. Watkins, and Miss Brown married Mr. Marker. Mr. Marker and Mr. Watkins were henpecked. After a time, conditions became so bad that the two men decided that they had to do something, and they decided to revolt. Each of them left a pathetic letter telling their wives that they intended to end their sorrows in the river. Then they set two suits of clothes on the riverbank and hid themselves. After the stricken wives had reached a sufficiently receptive condition, the husbands revealed themselves and magnanimously forgave them. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
