Story of a man who disregards the quiet affection of a fine girl to marry a frivolous actress with whom he is infatuated. Several years later, after the woman has wrecked his life, the husband gives up in despair and shoots himself. Not until then does he realize the other woman's affection towards him. When he does he places his little daughter in her care.[2]
The characters played respectively by Alice Hollister and Anna Nelson are "contrasting roles (that) make for an interesting commentary on the changing role of women in the early 20th century."[3]
