Miss Jennings, a dashing artist who loved Brownell, is moved to bitter jealousy. Mrs. Brownell secretly arranges to have her portrait painted intending to present it to her husband as a birthday gift. While she is posing Miss Jennings tells Brownell his wife is carrying on a clandestine love affair with Jackson the artist and that she is at that moment in his studio. Brownell goes to the studio, but Miss Jennings has preceded him and stolen the canvas. When Brownell finds his wife the explanation of her presence there is made ridiculous by the loss of the portrait. Brownell refuses to believe it, and sues for a divorce. A pathetic courtroom scene is shown as the husband is granted a decree. The broken-hearted wife seeks refuge in a monastery. Some time later Miss Jennings has a gathering of artists in her apartments, and one of the girls rummaging about finds the stolen portrait and shows it to Jackson. A dramatic situation ensues, and Jackson hurries to Brownell with the evidence of his wife's innocence. Brownell rushes to the monastery and is granted an audience with his ex-wife by the kindly monk. She is inclined to reject his pleading for a reconciliation, but the kindly priest gently joins their hands and again makes them man and wife. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
