The Doctor's Bride

Siegmund Lubin, Sigmund Lubin

Lubin's The Doctor's Bride begins as the physician hero marries the daughter of a deceased patient. Accustomed to deprivation and poverty, the heroine is overwhelmed by the doctor's opulent lifestyle. While sleeping in a comfy chair, she dreams that she is lured away from home by a handsome stranger. As punishment for her philandering, she is reduced to the same poverty from whence she came. At this point, she is aroused from her slumbers with a renewed appreciation for her new spouse. The critic for the trade magazine Variety wrote off The Doctor's Bride as just so much "cheap sentiment."

It is unnecessary to describe this picture, as the story is well-known to both old and young. We tell the story just as it is written, and temperance lecturers will do well to buy one for the moral it teaches.
