REVIEW, The Moving Picture World, May 23, 1914:

"This is a very meritorious offering; one that might be used by clerks and salesmen as a wholesome lesson. Nolan Gane plays the part of the polite young clerk, to the disgust of his store associates. Muriel Ostriche is his sweetheart. They are waiting and saving for the wedding day, but politeness on the lover's part to a trusty old maiden lady unexpectedly brings a check which enables them to marry at once. An interesting, well-played and produced number."
