He is infatuated with her and makes her his wife after a short courtship, but when he brings her home, his sister, Mrs. Naiby, is vexed that he married such an ignorant, unconventional girl and makes things unpleasant for her until she finally weans her brother from his dowdy little wife. Mavis hits upon a plan: in her husband's absence she hires a French maid, buys beautiful gowns, and in other ways fits herself in accordance with her husband's position. When he returns he does not even think of his little wife, having been completely won over by his sister. He goes to his club, where he is invited by some of his chums to attend a reception and meet the smartest little society woman of the day. Imagine his consternation upon meeting the society favorite to find that she is his own little wife transformed. He tries to win her back, but she almost ignores him. In a short time Graham becomes little more than Mrs. Graham's husband, which causes him no end of annoyance. Mavis continues to progress in the social world. Graham's sister, Mrs. Nainby, carries on a clandestine love affair and her husband finds a note from her lover. Mavis, to save Mrs. Nainby from her husband's wrath, declares that the unaddressed love note was sent to her. This causes complications with her own husband, who happens to overhear her statement. Mavis tries to right herself in her husband's eyes, but jealousy prompts him to refuse to acknowledge her explanation. With nothing left to her in life, Mavis returns to Old Peter. Graham at last really understands that Mavis is, after all, the only woman in the world he loves, and seeks her out. He finds her living with Old Peter. He again pleads his love, and is forgiven, for the heart of Mavis still remains true to her husband. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
