Unique Occurences
The Santa Barbara Morning Press chose to praise the "trick" camera work: "when Dr. Abbot, a drug user, in a dope dream sees himself as he would be like. The doctor falls asleep on a little pile of hay and dreams that from his medicine case emerge rich men and women who become his patients, foriegn notables and ladies fair who pay priceless sums for his services and then awakes to discover it was all a dream. The little drama eneacted by the tiny figures that emerge from the medicine case is a splendid bit of camera work and is convincing in its reality."
