Even with a missing ending, this one is worth seeing.

This film is called a 'Joy Bell Comedy'--whatever that means. All I know is that it is very funny.

It begins at Lotta Vigor's health club. Apparently Miss Vigor has concocted a formula to make people look young again and another formula to make them feel young and full of life. The demonstration of this is quite funny and convinces a rich guy to buy their formulas. However, some rivals kidnap Miss Vigor and steal the formulas. Unfortunately, during this chase scene, the film ends--apparently lost to the ages like many films due to the decomposition of the nitrate film stock.

Despite the film missing the ending, it is still worth seeing because it packs quite a few laughs into what remains. Clever and very silly....and worth seeing.
