Her quaint appearance and mannerisms become the subject of much ridicule among the young lady telephone operators, and Eddie, the gossipy bell-boy. Sundown Robert a young westerner, often buys papers at Mary's stand, and the acquaintance ripens into love. Eddie happens to see the picture of a beautiful woman in Sundown's watch and tells Mary her friend is married and carries his wife's picture in his watch. She refuses to believe him, so he maliciously changes the letters on an envelope addressed to Mr. Robert Sundown, making it read: "Mrs. Robert Sundown." This he shows to Mary and she is broken-hearted. Mlle. de Vries, an adventuress, succeeds in bringing Sundown within her influence. Mary sees how things are going, and determines to save the man she loves, for his wife, by outwitting Mlle. de Vries. She spends all her savings to purchase attractive finery and make herself beautiful, so that when Sundown sees her under the new conditions he becomes more madly in love with her than ever. He quarrels with Mlle. de Vries, and asks Mary to dinner that evening. The couple are seen by the manager and Mary is discharged for carrying on a flirtation with a hotel guest. Sundown sees her leaving the place weeping bitterly and follows her. When he attempts to comfort her and speak of his love, she repulses him, explaining she only went between him and the adventuress to save him for his wife. Sundown is rather bewildered until she mentions the envelope and picture in his watch. Then he eagerly explains the picture came from a cigarette package and he had even forgotten he had it, while the envelope was evidently tampered with. With a radiant smile and a sigh of relief, Mary nestles in Sundown's ready arms. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
