Handled with considerable skill

This makes a good story of character development, and it is handled with considerable skill by a cast including John Steppling, Ed Coxen and Winnifred Greenwood. It begins in the West, showing how the young wife grubstakes Bad Penny Tom, who strikes gold and makes them all very rich. Then John, the husband, gets into high society, when the wife fails. This point seemed a little improbable, but is of small consequence to the story. The husband's later career in politics was convincingly shown; he falls into the clutches of a widow lobbyist, who deserts him after his financial failure. Tom then reunites the family. This is well constructed and entertaining throughout. - The Moving Picture World, August 29, 1914
