The girl pricks her face with a thorn from some roses and the youth puts a tiny piece of court plaster on the spot, which has the effect of a fascinating beauty spot. The youth proposes, asks the father for the girl's hand, and is informed that she can only marry a man who works. The youth answers several advertisements for help, but is not taken seriously. He has a fantastic dream of his sweetheart and myriads of beauty spots and conceives the notion of making beauty spots fashionable and going into business. He gets into all kinds of scrapes promoting the fashion, but finally succeeds and is taken into partnership with Dr. Grump's Toilet Specialties. With his partnership papers explanations are made to his sweetheart and her father, and he is forgiven and accepted. In the finale the colored maid appears, also in fashion, with a white beauty spot on her black face. Written by
