A boarding house farce helped by the Nestor subtitles. The impecunious boarder is ordered out of his room for non-payment of rent and, to get even with the lady of the house, he steals her dog, a white poodle. The man then suggests to her that she advertise a reward and this he collects with the help of a friend outside. Because his advertisement had so quickly brought back the pet, Mr. Hopkins is soon back in favor with the mistress. It is amusing, but very light. It is very hard to get anything effective, and original, too, out of the boarding house situation. The photographs are good and the subtitles very clever. It will serve as a filler. - The Moving Picture World, February 17, 1912
