THE PROPOSAL
A nervous young farmer comes to propose to his neighbour’s daughter but things get a little out of hand... or the proposal that goes wrong.

ON THE HARMFUL EFFECTS OF TOBACCO
Nyukhin, a henpecked man and also a smoker, has been told by his wife to give a lecture about "the harmful effects of tobacco". Bear with him, as he might make a few brief digressions to complain about his domineering wife.
It's all the same to me; but, kind ladies and gentleman... I urge you to take my lecture with all due seriousness, or something awful may happen.
What's more suited than a speech on the harmful effects of tobacco by the cigarette smoking man!
THE BEAR
When a widow who fancies herself inconsolably bereaved meets a landowner deeply in debt and also a total boor.
