Female clown
A male and female clown drink, smoke, and flirt in this early Kinemacolor short.
Mary Jane
Mary Jane tries to light the oven. When she's unsuccessful, she plays around, getting black boot polish on her face. She mugs before a mirror. Then, it's back to work. When the stove still won't light, she pours in paraffin, winks at the camera, and lights a match. Kaboom! Is there any rest for the foolish, even in the grave?
Joe
A scene from Charles Dickens Bleak House.
Miss Pimple
An old spinster receives an unexpected Valentine's letter.
Young woman
Possibly the first film to utilize the technique of focus pulling. A man kisses a beautiful and lively woman, then the image blurs and dissolves into a clear image of the man waking up to his nagging wife.
Wife (as Mrs. George Albert Smith)
A humorous subject intended to be run as a part of a railroad scene during the period in which the train is passing through a tunnel.
Santa arrives at a house on Christmas Eve to deliver his presents for the children.
Cinderella
An adaptation of the folk tale.
Woman
A romantic couple are transformed into skeletons via X-Rays. The film combines two very recent innovations: Wilhelm Roentgen's discovery of X-rays in 1895, and Georges Méliès' accidental realisation of the special-effects potential of the jump-cut in 1896.
Maid
Lovers are comically interrupted
