The ambitious girl discovers that her health is becoming impaired and she is advised to take a vacation. She therefore visits her cousin Lilly in New York and improvises a laboratory where she continues her studies. Lilly, giving most of her attention to social affairs, is inclined to ridicule her serious-minded cousin but Dr. Leslie, who has been very attentive to Lilly, finds that the visitor is an unusual young woman and soon his affections are transferred. Naturally a barrier arises between the cousins and Rose is about to leave Lilly's house when a series of unexpected incidents delay her departure from the city. Angelina, a young Italian mother, finds that she cannot properly care for her sick baby as she earns a livelihood by selling lace from door to door. She leaves the infant in the care of its grandmother and while offering her wares to Rose, tells her pitiful story to the young nurse. Rose's sympathies are aroused and she visits the squalid home in Mulberry Bend. There she is startled by the prevailing conditions and the baby's father enters while the nurse is establishing some hygienic measures. The ignorant Italian, fearing that the baby will die, tells Rose that he will hold her responsible and locks her in the room. Seeing that she must have skillful assistance, Rose succeeds in sending a message to Dr. Leslie, who forces his way into the tenement with an officer. The crisis passes and when the baby's recovery is assured the Italian is pacified. When Rose returns to the hospital it is to present her resignation and inform her friends that she has entered into a permanent contract with the medical profession.
