Day by Day in Every Way (1923)

In a spoof of the 1920s mantra "every day in every way, I'm getting better and better", a cat goes around a farm with a self-help book preaching the mantra to animals with troubles -- a hen that won't lay eggs, a mouse with a plant that won't grow, a rabbit being chased by dogs, three lame mice, a wheelchair-bound monkey -- and cures them. But crotchety old Farmer Al Falfa, who's sick with the flu, rejects the cure -- at first.

Day by Day in Every Way has a runtime of 9 minutes.
