    A charming little girl

    A picture whose chief asset is the prettiness of many of its scenes and especially those in which the orphan herself is the center of interest, for she is a charming little girl, not at all conscious of the camera. The story is full of incompatibilities that take away all belief and make it wholly artificial. - The Moving Picture World, May 10, 1913
