Katie is very fond of the little mite and knows that her mother is having a hard time making a living for the three of them, so she determines that she will help to secure enough money to get her sister what she needs. When he leaves, the doctor playfully leaves a newspaper in her hand, and she finds in it an advertisement for messenger girls at a millinery shop. She secures the position and it is understood that she is to run errands after school hours. On one of her trips she makes the acquaintance of little 7-year-old Florence Chester, who has wandered away from her street and become lost. Katie takes her home. She meets her several times afterward and a great friendship springs up between them. At the millinery shop, the other girls take advantage of Katie being the youngest one there; they play pranks and tricks on her. She doesn't enter into their frolics. While delivering a parcel one day, she meets Florence, and as they are parting a reckless boy on skates bowls Katie over. She falls, crushes the hat she is carrying, and dislocates her arm. A friendly police officer takes her home. Florence finds out where she lives and brings her mother and father to meet her little benefactress and to find out the extent of her injuries. The meeting brings friends for Katie and her mother and baby sister, and Katie's kind act of taking Florence home when she was lost brings her that for which she strove.
