01:15
PREFACE
IF you let your mind wander back through History you will find that the only thing that has not changed since the World began is—LOVE. Love is the unchanging axis on which the World revolves.
01:35

01:53

02:27
In every age Beauty is sought by the Adventurer.
02:43
Through every age there is the faithful worshipper at Beauty's shrine.
04:12
Youth is eternally protected by the sheltering wing of devoted parents.
. . . Mr. Joseph Roberts

"I want you boys to know that I am master of my own home, and the choice of my daughter's husband rests entirely with—"
14:47
"—my wife!"
14:57
"Of course you gentlemen understand that my daughter's happiness hangs in the balance."
