Jules of the Strong Heart Synopsis

Jules Lemaire, a happy-go-lucky French-Canadian lumberman, arrives at the Nemo lumber camp carrying a baby. His love for the child wins him the respect of Joy Farnsworth, the daughter of the camp's foreman, but this arouses the jealousy of Big Jim Burgess, the camp bully. Burgess incites the men to strike when the delivery of their paychecks is delayed because of a storm, whereupon Jules offers to cross the river and retrieve the payroll. Burgess volunteers to accompany Jules, but after their departure, he ties the lumberman up and attempts to torture him into giving up the order of delivery for the money. In the meantime, a stranger appears at the camp and tells Joy that Jules had been caring for his child while he was in England. Joy and the stranger rescue Jules and turn Burgess over to the foreman, after which Joy proposes to the French-Canadian.

The Clever Mrs. Carfax Synopsis

Newspaper publisher Temple Trask, who answers the "Letters to the Lovelorn" column under the nom-de-plume "Mrs. Carfax," becomes the hit of his college reunion when he revives his female impersonation act. Returning home, Temple meets Billy Wise, another college friend, who wagers one hundred dollars that Temple will not go into a restaurant dressed as a woman. He takes the dare, then sees Helen Scott in the restaurant and, although he is a cynic who does not like women because he knows too much about them, he falls in love. When he notices that Adrian Graw, a crook whom Temple knew when he was a cub reporter, is after Helen's fortune, Temple, impersonating Mrs. Carfax, accompanies Helen and her grandmother, Mrs. Keyes, aboard a steamer to protect them. On the voyage, Helen becomes good friends with Mrs. Carfax and falls in love with Temple. After Mrs. Carfax punches Graw during a struggle for Mrs. Keyes bonds, the police arrest Graw and his accomplice, Rena Varsey. Helen, astonished when Temple removes his wig, falls joyfully into his arms.
