A Bowery boy spreads the news among his pals, and with the aid of a string of pearls, bought at a "five-and-ten-cent store," they succeed in getting most of Herr Limburger's ready cash. A trip to Tiffany's jewelry store with the worthless pearls shows Herr Limburger that he has made a bad bargain, but his wife proves to have a good capacity for oysters and finds a real pearl in time to save her husband's reason.
