When You Know You're Not Forgotten by the Girl You Can't Forget.

Words by Ed. Gardinier. Music by J. Fred. Helf.

  1. Title slide. Fine moonlight effect, with a couple walking, strolling leisurely through the trees.
  2. Same couple sitting on flower bank, sunlight and happiness abounding.
  3. Same couple in boat on lake, in midst of overhanging trees and shrubbery.
  4. Beautiful interior; gaslight effect on two figures.
  5. Lady pensively watching, surrounded by circlet of flowers.
  6. Effect scene. Lady on porch of house in her day dreams seeing her lover far away in India, riding on elephant.
  7. Couple holding heart-shaped wreath of evergreens, in the center of which they are pictured in loving attitude.
  8. In the foreground a rosebush in full bloom, backed by a fence, behind which are five maidens, rivaling the roses in front.
  9. Lady seated in the open Gothic window of church, listening to her companion, who is outside.
  10. Effect slide, showing a couple holding hands over a heart, in which they are mirrored in each other's arms.
  11. Snow scene; couple walking in midst of trees.
  12. Portico of house; lady leaning against column, looking down a long vista of well-kept flower garden as though waiting and longing for return of her lover, whom she cannot forget.
  13. Effect slide; interior of parlor in gloaming; male figure seated before fire, lost in reverie, and seeing in the leaping flames the image of the sweetheart whom he cannot forget.
  14. Snow scene, with lady in foreground looking expectantly forward.
  15. Effect slide; lady holding in each hand heart-shaped evergreens; in the left hand she is mirrored, in the right her sweetheart.
  16. A bunch of flowers; a real beauty, showing eighteen typical ladies from as many nationalities.
  17. Chorus slide.

This is one of the most effective sets of slides we have seen for a long while, for originality in conception and get-up. Messrs. Scott & Van Altena have departed from the stereotyped shape of mat and have introduced some innovations which add to the beauty of the slides—one is a diamond shape, another the five-pointed star, another has the four-leaf shamrock pattern— and is a set that must be seen to be fully appreciated. We predict a heavy run on this set both for the makers and publishers, Messrs. Helf & Hager.
