Overview
Mary Jane tries to light the oven. When she’s unsuccessful, she plays around, getting black boot polish on her face. She mugs before a mirror. Then, it’s back to work. When the stove still won’t light, she pours in paraffin, winks at the camera, and lights a match. Kaboom! Is there any rest for the foolish, even in the grave?

Viewing Notes
A goofy little short but it has some pretty great practical effects for its time, including Mary Jane getting blown out a chimney in pieces and rising from the grave as a ghost.
