One day a great impresario, passing along the busy street, heard the voice from above and stopped. He investigated and thus was Antonio Bolino discovered. But Tony would not give up his humble quarters, and his Italian sweetheart, much to the disapproval of the impresario, who was compelled to let him have his way, and Tony and Mercedes talked and sang of sunny Italy and looked forward to the day when they should be able to return. His first appearance was one grand ovation and the papers lauded him to the skies, but Tony was not vain over his prosperity. The once little bank account now grew rapidly, and when the year came around in which his contract with the impresario ended, he came home to Mercedes, threw off his evening dress and sent for beer, and over the little lunch they laughed and talked and tore up the expired contract. Next day a big ocean liner received on board two Italian passengers. The impresario, with a new contract, and visions of fame and wealth, went to the Italian tenement, and in the window saw a sign "To let." He inquired and learned that his find with the sweetheart had returned to Italy. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
