Do not wish for your friends a life one century long, for fear the things they may suffer on the celebration of their one-hundredth birthday will bring them more pain than pleasure. We present a laughable record of one centenarian's experience. Bontemps, the hero of our comedy, has come to the ripe old age of one hundred and it falls to his lot to be visited first by his children and grandchildren, then by reporters, photographers and learned doctors, who rudely examine hair, teeth, eyes, muscles and joints. Crowds of tourists pay him honors. A fatiguing day is brought to a close by the entire town giving him a rousing reception.

Released in the US as a split reel along with Песня о мальчике в кафе (1910).
