Brown steals his wife's "measure" and then proceeds to get a model. His office is stormed by a bevy of very pretty girls. Mrs. Brown happens to drop in, and in a bit of fun poses as a model. The dressmaker promptly engages her. Promising to report for duty on the morrow, Mrs. Brown departs, but not until the dressmaker has acquainted her with Mr. Brown's intentions. In due time the dress is finished, and Mr. Brown is informed to call at the dressmaker's at two p.m. to see the creation on the model. Business detains him, and the Mrs. slips out unnoticed by the dressmaker. Brown manages to get through with his business deal and makes a "marathon dash" to the dressmaker's. There he finds that both model and dress have vanished. The police are quickly called into the case and they quickly catch Mrs. Brown with the goods. At headquarters Brown realizes that the surprise though on his wife is "on" him. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
