He receives word from his wealthy Aunt Becky of her return from Europe and some excellent suggestions about the kind of wife he should have married, and he worries that his bride will not meet Aunt Becky's strict standards. He "diplomatically" writes Aunt Becky a letter to the effect that his wife certainly has faults and that nobody can sew like Aunt Becky. His wife gets hold of the letter; highly indignant, she adds a postscript, stoutly maintaining that she is an expert housekeeper, and puts the letter back in Henry's coat pocket. That night Henry finds a model household when he returns, and his wife is excruciatingly particular. Things get so that Henry fears to move, and his wife is so busy fussing over the house that she has no time for him. Aunt Becky arrives on a surprise visit and Mrs. Newlywed explains the note incident, then Aunty and her new niece, with the aid of a pair of homemade trousers, get Henry into a ridiculous predicament that teaches him a lesson in diplomacy. Aunt Becky then leaves the Newlyweds to their reconciliation. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
