PICKING PEACHES
In this ludicrous farce Harry Langdon plays the familiar role of the philandering husband who becomes involved in a series of screamingly funny situations. He is a salesman in the ladies' shoe department of a large store. The sequence in which Harry grabs a customer's leg thinking it is a wooden hoisery model, is a gag that always gets a big laugh. There are several beach scenes, followed by a beauty contest, giving the Mack Sennett bathing girls ample opportunity to display their charms. Most of the action in the last part of the story takes place in bathrooms and bedrooms, with Harry falling into the tub, hiding in a bed occupied by a jealous husband and going through a string of hilarious antics. A slapstick comedy with a racy plot similar to that of the typical French farce. You will get a hundred laughs out of it.

The "Twenty Cent Limited" as the train is called, is a faithful replica of the first steam train, tl has a funny, wood burning locomotive and cars that look like ancient stage-coaches. Al St. John is the engineer and the resourcefulness he employs would make a modern railroad man turn green with envy. When the train with its abnormally high smoke stack reaches a tunnel, Al removes the stack and carries it
