At last the two inseparables, Mutt and Jeff, have struck it rich. They have real money, and, as is often the case with people unaccustomed to hear the joyful jingling of the “vile metal” or feel the cold warm touch of the “mazuma,” neither Mutt nor Jeff knows what to do with their suddenly acquired riches, Being on Easy Street for the time being, they plan innumerable plans to remain on that comfortable road for the balance of their mortal existence. Mutt, whose “thinkatorial” apparatus is of the quick lunch order, is the recipient of one lightning inspiration after another, which rotund little Jeff dashes to the ground in his stubborn, slow manner. Mutt finally asserts his six feet or more of lissome build, for no regiment of Jeff’s can tell him that there is anything more profitable than the banking business. Reluctantly the little fellow joins his tall partner in a banking venture, hoping against hope that the enterprise might prove a success. Depositors are hard to find; at least none stray into the banking Office of Mutt and Jeff Co. This lack, however, is more than made up by clients wanting to borrow money for a limited length of time and offering big bonuses and splendid real estate for security. No such golden opportunity can give Mutt the go-by. Brushing aside his little partner’s objections Mutt quickly lends out all the bank’s cash, and already rejoices over the big haul he soon expects to make. Borrowers, as a rule, are very forgetful folks, and the ones who clean out the Mutt and Jeff bank are the rule and not the exception; they are even worse, as Mutt finds out when, tired of waiting for the return of the bank’s money together with the alluring bonuses, he decides to go and take possession of the mythical land, houses, etc., given as security. The bank is busted, Mutt is busted and Jeff is both busted and sore. Stunned by the sudden termination of his dream of gold, poor Mutt fails to see the frowning countenance his diminutive chum, and from somewhere, somehow, comes another unexpected blow, and alas, the tall ex-banker is busted again!
