A love story which might have resulted disastrously, but fortunately did not. The first scene, where the girls are telling fortunes with the daisy petals, is suggestive of rustic happiness of years agone. Enter the gypsy, and his influence, by which he makes the two sisters rivals. Next come chagrin and disappointment, the striking down of the girl's father, and the ignominious hiding of the romantic gypsy in a barrel of plebeian potatoes. Well, he is run out of the neighborhood, and the girls return happily to their former sweethearts. There is a simplicity and directness about this picture which greatly increases its interest, and the effect upon one is pleasant. It brings back old days, and youthful pleasures and visions, more freely, perhaps, than almost any picture of recent date. The acting is sympathetic and clear photography adds to the general effect. - The Moving Picture World, July 23, 1910
