He then tries his luck at the cobbler's, clothing store and barber shop, and in each instance meets with severe treatment. He is half famished when he meets two young men about town who for a joke invite him to have a drink. Entering a café, they behold the barkeeper fondly gazing at two suits of ancient armor mounted upon pedestals. They repair to the bar and the tramp indulges to his heart's content, after which he curiously examines the knights' armor and falls asleep on the chair. He dreams that the knights come to life and offer their services as his body guard. We now see him leading the knights forth. First he goes to the baker's cellar, where he commands the knights to throw the baker into a vat of dough while he gobbles down pies and cakes. Next to the cobbler's, where he confiscates a pair of shoes, while the knights hammer the tall, protesting cobbler down, reducing him to a dwarf. In the clothing store he succeeds in securing a new outfit. They next proceed to the barber shop, where the knights coerce the frightened barber into shaving the tramp and cutting his hair in the latest fashion. Weary Willie drags the barber under the shower bath and receives a goodly portion of the spray himself. At that moment he is rudely awakened by the barkeeper's siphon playing a forceful stream on his face. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
