The Legend of Sterling Keep avers that whoever shall sleep in the keep room shall sleep fifty years, or awaken in the morning to find his road clear to a kingship. A bridegroom, on the eve of his marriage to the daughter of Lord Sterling, scorns the legend and sleeps in the keep room. His affianced bride, | with the aid of friends, plays a practical joke upon him by changing the furniture, hangings | and other features of the room so as to give him the impression when he awakes that fifty | years have elapsed A siab in the wall giving the date of the death of his bride adds to the | deception. The bridegroom loses his mind because of the Joke, but in later years it is restored. A striking and beautiful picture. No. 6468. Code, Veries. Released June Ii, 1909. THE BOOTS HE COULDN'T LOSE. Mr. Scruggles attempts to dispose of a pair of tight boots, but, like the cat that came back, they return to their owner as fast as they are thrown away. The beots return unaided and as if they had life. It is an interesting reproduction of trick photography. App. Length 1,000 Feet mezr.: Boston, indef. e .
