“The Tempting Tip.” ​ It revolves around the Dean’s daughters, Salome and Sheba, who are worried about paying for their expensive fancy dress costumes for a ball. ​ They consider asking their father, the Dean, for money, but he reveals he has no spare cash and scolds them for their extravagance. ​ The girls suggest betting on a horse race to win the money. Does there plan work?
