Everywhere he goes he is on the lookout for them, and is thoroughly disgusted when many charming women reveal feet of enormous proportions. One morning, a shoe-drummer leaves a plaster mold of a female foot, beautifully small and charming. It is handed over to Tibbs, who goes into ecstasies, fits a pair of shoes to the model, then puts a large sign in the window offering to give the shoes to any lady able to wear them. During his absence a veiled Venus enters, tries on the shoes and they are found to fit her perfectly. She leaves her own shoes and goes out wearing the new ones. Tibbs returns and, with one of her shoes in his hand, starts out in pursuit of his affinity. For a whole month he searches vainly, hiding under sidewalks and watching the passing feet for a glimpse of his Cinderella, but with no success. At last one day, he catches sight of her through the window of a barber-shop, wipes the lather from his half-shaved face and rushes out. The chase leads to the railroad station, where Cinderella boards the train. Tibbs, after a hard dash, boards the train as it is pulling out, secures a berth and goes to bed. Next morning he is searching for his lost collar-button, when those fairy feet emerge from the opposite berth before his very eyes. Down on his knees, Tibbs pours out his love, only to have Cinderella's face appear next and discover she is a toothless and frightfully ugly spinster. With a whoop of rage, Tibbs dashes from the coach, and while Cinderella vainly tries to prevent it, dives from the train. A moment later he crawls up the embankment a human wreck and limps off for the city, a sadder but wiser man. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
