A picture that stands by its prettiness, in acting, scenes and photography. The story, by J.O. Curwood, is not convincing, as produced. It deals with the somewhat trite proposition of the unmarried woman, a pretty and extravagantly dressed typist, to the neglected and, by comparison, shabby wife of the man who is spending money on her, to dress up and so have "a fighting chance" against herself the stenographer. Miss Anna Stewart plays the typist, Rosemary Theby, the wife in gingham, and Ned Finley, the man. It was directed by Ralph Ince. - The Moving Picture World, May 10, 1913
