Mrs. Wood, unable to forgive her daughter, now lavishes everything upon the unscrupulous Susanna. Rosalie's husband is poor, and each year life becomes a more bitter struggle. At last, Rosalie dies, leaving Porter heart-broken. When his twin daughters, Marion and Madeline are twelve, the father also dies. They are told that they are to be sent to an institution. The two little girls have their heads full of fairy lore. Remembering the story of the princess who put fern seed in her shoes so that she could send her spirit self with a message of love to her dear prince, they decide that they will do the same, so that their spirit selves may find the grandmother whom they never have seen, and win her love and protection. Everybody, whether they believe in fairies or not, should see the happy conclusion of this picture. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
