His pretty wife is exceedingly vexed but cannot cure him of his love for strenuous sports. A forlorn tramp comes to the floor begging for a meal, and George promptly knocks him down. Mrs. Burns goes to mail a letter and accidentally drops it. A good-looking stranger picks it up for her and drops it into the box. She thanks him and goes home. George has been watching the incident with jealous eyes, and when he sees that the stranger stands looking after his wife in admiration he conceives a brilliant plan. He sends a note to the stranger asking him to call, and receives him with great affectation of courtesy and politeness. He lures his guest into the gymnasium and inveigles him to put on the boxing gloves, and then proceeds to "trim" him nicely. It turns out, however, that the stranger is a pugilist, and before he gets through with George that gentleman is willing to sign a pledge never to look at a glove again.
