NERVE TONIC
A Christie Comedy featuring Jimmie Adams. The doctor barred Eddie from going to his office, so he moved his office home. The doctor, his assistant and his daughter, who is engaged to Eddie, make an unexpected call. The butler warns Eddie, and by means of his trick furniture, he quickly converts his office into a bedroom. The doctor discovers the hoax and tells Eddie that his engagement to his daughter is off. Eddie begs for another chance, and the Doctor agrees, on condition that he places himself in the care of his assistant and does everything he is told. The assistant makes Eddie run until he drops, and then carries him to a strange house.
A trapdoor concealed in a davenport opens and Eddie's girl friend sticks her head out and yells for help. She disappears. Next he sees her being dragged through the doorway by a man with heavy whiskers. He runs after her and collides with a brick wall. Then follow a series of screamingly funny episodes in which Eddie falls through trap doors, slides down trick stairways and races through secret passageways. He finally rescues the girl, only to discover that he is in an amusement concession at the beach and the whole thing is a hoax to cure him of his nervousness. Everybody, young and old, will get a lot of good laughs out of this clean, excellent comedy.

THE MOVIES
In this hilarious comedy, Lloyd Hamilton plays two parts, himself and a farmer boy. For convenience, the country lad will be called "Elmer," and Hamilton himself "Lloyd." Elmer bids his Ma and Pa goodbye and leaves the farm, bound for Hollywood. As he closes the gate behind him, the camera swings around and it transpires that the "farm" is right next to a skyscraper on Hollywood Boulevard. He runs into Bull Buckley, a man with an "even" disposition — he is always sore. Bull follows him, tearing his clothes and molesting him generally. For protection, Elmer walks beside a policeman. The policeman waits at a corner and while he is looking the other way, Elmer knocks his hat oflf and blames Bull for it. The policeman arrests Bull. At the entrance of the Cafe Montmartre, a crowd of movie actors push him up the stairs. Here he is surprised to see several famous persons, including Cleopatra, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt and Lloyd Hamilton. Noting the resemblance between Elmer and the comedian, Hamilton's director hires Elmer to act as his double.
