We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.
Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

Charlie stiffens him again with a poke in the jaw. Pocketing his part of the swag, Charlie strokes the victim's mustache, rubs his hands as drinks are poured, and goes through other lavish puppetry. Finally Charlie motions the other crook closer and gives him the bottle on the head. As the two crooks collapse on the table, Charlie enters through the curtain and retrieves the wallet.
Wriggling back behind the bar, he is caught between the legs of the bartender who pulls him up by the hair. Once more the wallet changes hands. In the meanwhile the two crooks revive. The wallet passes like a basketball, from hand to hand, with Charlie finally snatching it and dashing out.
There is a chase and wild shooting, with the lunch wagon the scene and the suffering owner, whose hat is shot off, as chief victim. He and Charlie pop up and down behind the counter together and alternately. Charlie tests the situation by raising a plate which is promptly punctured with bullets. As the crooks storm the wagon and choke Charlie, his faithful dog makes off with the fallen wallet. The melee ends with the crooks in the cop's hands, the counterman adorned with a beautiful black eye and his dishes neatly drilled through — and Charlie off with Scraps and Edna, and the wallet, headed for a new life.
"When dreams come true." The camera irises in on the interior of a picturesque little farm. In the cottage Edna prepares tea at the fireplace. Out in a large field the straw-hatted Charlie is planting a long furrow, digging little holes with his finger and inserting a seed in each hole, one at a time. His wife calls. Gathering up his fork and rake, he enters and the couple kiss playfully. Then he carries her on his back to a basket by the fire; they kiss and sigh as they look fondly down. The camera tilts to reveal a litter of puppies, and Scraps, the proud parent.
