Having made an appointment for His Lorship, the Honorable Cheesetowers Cranberry, with their beautiful daughter, Betty, that afternoon they await anxiously for the English nobleman's arrival. His Lordship arrives in good time, but meets with a frosty reception from Betty, although her father and mother remind her that if she marries Lord Cranberry she will be able to call herself "Lady Cranberry" and flaunt her position before all her dear girl friends. Eddie, a traveling salesman for the Gold Dust Soup Company, doesn't take kindly to His Nobs and when he reads in the local newspaper that Betty's engagement is to be announced to Lord Cranberry he registers great rage with both sides of his face. While His Nobs is having his hair dressed by Gus, his valet, Eddie calls on Betty. Betty has taken a violent fancy to Eddie and breaks her dinner engagement with His Nobs to go out with the charming young salesman. That night Eddie hears two crooks talking of the Betty Van Cliff-Lord Cranberry engagement. "As the husband of Miss Van Cliff." One crook points out to the other, "they will never suspect Lord Cranberry of being 'Dirty Jim, the counterfeiter.'" That's enough for Eddie. A squadron of detectives are harnessed up and with Eddie leading the way, the party nab "Dirty Jim," alias Lord Cranberry, just as he is slipping an engagement ring on Betty's finger. When "Dirty Jim" is carted off to jail things come easier for Eddie as far as Betty is concerned. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
