The Bargain Hunters (1914)

This is a pleasing story of a young married couple, who are the victims of a boarding house. They decide to move, to keep house for themselves, and a week later we find them in a cozy flat in the suburbs. Mrs. Hunter has an irresistible desire to purchase everything for the apartment at a "bargain," and many humorous incidents occur on this account. The climax comes when she finally purchases an oil stove, which not only smokes up the whole apartment, but finally explodes.
