Comes a time when his drunkenness is the cause of his death. The girl's chum, at one time employed in the same factory with her, but now a cabaret entertainer, obtains for the girl a position in the same place. The young doctor who attended her father at the time of his death, loves the girl, and learning of her whereabouts from Spike, one of the girl's admirers, a tough but good-hearted character, he becomes a nightly visitor at the café. Later, he asks her to become his wife, but she refuses, pleading illiteracy. A vicious millionaire bachelor who frequents the café notices the girl, and learning that she is unsophisticated, asks her to come to his home, where he promises that his wife shall look after her future. She is saved from the fate which many girls had met at the hands of the millionaire, by the ever-vigilant Spike, who had been on the alert to guard her against such men as this. The picture ends charmingly with the girl wistfully accepting the second time what she refused, and so wanted, the first. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
