Plot
[edit]As described in a film magazine review,[4] when Ellen Linden returns home, she finds her father ill and without funds. She immediately goes to work for James Rand and Egbert Phillips. She grows friendly with James, which makes Egbert jealous, although both are married men. Tom Galloway, a young friend of her father, loves her, but leaves for Europe. While he is there, she becomes innocently compromised with James, and his wife names her as a co-respondent in a suit for divorce. After the divorce, James proposes but Ellen turns him down. Tom returns, but writes to Ellen that he is sailing to Honolulu and wishes her happiness. She races for the ship and tells him that she is going with him on a honeymoon cruise.
