When he read in the newspaper that the beautiful Elsie Worth was to marry the Count de Penutti, he fell deeply in love with Elsie's picture and a violent rage entered his sturdy American bosom that this fair rose of the Western hemisphere should fall to the lot of a decadent sprig of European nobility. Andy decided that since he was not old enough to marry Elsie himself, the only thing to do was to find some other real American citizen for her. He thought of Joe Parker, a splendid young man who had occasionally employed Andy on errands, was the very man. Joe Parker was a regular fellow. Andy's opportunity arrived when he was sent by the count to Miss Worth's home with a box of flowers. He extracted the count's card at the door and by a mighty effort, chewed it up and swallowed it. Then he told Miss Worth that the flowers had been sent by an unknown admirer who would be at a certain restaurant that afternoon wearing one of the flowers. Leaving the surprised Miss Worth, Andy went to Joe Parker, gave him one of the flowers, and told him that a young lady was crazy to meet him. Joe followed out Andy's instructions, went to the restaurant, and by a lucky chance was introduced to Elsie. They fell in love at first sight, but unfortunately there was still the count to reckon with. Andy fixed him. He took a letter to Mr. Worth, telling him that the count was only a fortune hunter, and that he would demand money before the wedding. Then he took a letter to the count, telling him that the Worths were penniless. The indignant count instantly went to Mr. Worth and demanded a settlement. Mr. Worth quite naturally refused, and the count broke the engagement. So Elsie and Joe were married and Andy heaved a sigh of relief. How could a man be expected to pay attention to his business if he had to go around and fix things for people all the time? Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
