Graham receives an offer from John Smedley, a businessman, to represent the Smedley interests in Japan, but refuses the offer. Arnold proposes to Graham that they both learn their fate at a forthcoming social function to be given by Norine Marsden. Graham agrees. On the day of the party Graham and Arnold send flowers to Norine, each enclosing a note, asking the girl to carry the floral tributes to signify that she loves him. The notes become mixed by Norine's maid. Norine loves Harry Graham, and she selects what she believes to be Graham's flowers, but instead they belong to Arnold. When Graham sees the girl he loves wearing the flowers sent by another, he is downcast and when Arnold, later rejected by the girl, craftily informs Graham that he has been accepted, Graham resolves to go to Japan. As the years pass, Arnold continues to be refused by Norine, while Harry Graham abjures all social pleasures in the Flowery Kingdom, thinking constantly of the girl he believes he has lost. One day a jinrikisha carrying Loti San, a young Japanese girl, collides with the jinrikisha occupied by Graham. Loti San is injured, and Graham carries her into the home of her father Okito. The little Japanese maiden falls in love with the American. One day when Graham calls at the home of Okito to see Loti San, he discovers the Japanese girl kissing a glove he has left there previously, and he comes to a realization of her love. He believes it is his duty to marry her, and he does so. James Marsden, Norine's father, breathes his last, and Norine is advised by her physician to take a tour of the world. Eventually she arrives in Japan. Even the advent of a baby at the home of Harry Graham and Loti San fails to dispel thoughts of Norine from the mind of Graham. One day Graham and Norine meet. The flame of love brightens again. But Norine repulses the advances of Graham when he tells her that he is married. Graham continues to make desperate love to Norine, who again repulses him. But Graham's love for the American girl is discovered by little Loti San, who, with her baby, goes to the home of her father. Norine urges Graham to return to his wife and baby, and tells him that she shall immediately leave the country. Graham, in desperation, wanders into a hut occupied by a victim of the Oriental plague. He gives the sufferer aid and contracts the disease from which there is no recovery. Word is brought to both Norine Marsden and Loti San that Graham is desperately ill at his home. Norine and Loti San and her baby reach Graham's home together. Despite the fact that Graham is calling her name in his delirium, Norine falters in the doorway and turns away. Loti San gives her baby to Norine to take away with her, and enters the sick room, there to sacrifice her own life in caring for her husband. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
