John is taken ill and the doctor decides he has tuberculosis, and that only a change of climate will help. Janet, who is a stenographer in the office of George Wheeler, a wealthy broker, determines to forge his name to a check to secure means to send her brother away. She forges the check and takes the money home and says that her employer has given it as a loan. In the meantime, the broker discovers the forgery and has Janet arrested. Her mother and brother are heartbroken and the mother leaves John alone with his baby sister, while she goes to seek aid for Janet. John struggles out of bed with the help of the little sister and they go out to find the broker and intercede for Janet. On their arrival at the office John succumbs to weariness and falls half fainting on the couch in the outer room. Little Violet enters the broker's private office alone, just as he is gazing at the picture of his own loved and lost baby. Violet wins his heart; he listens to her story, which is later corroborated by John. He sends them home happy in the assurance that their sister shall return to them. He withdraws the charge against Janet, gives John money to go away and with a last lingering kiss for little Violet, leaves the now-happy family. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
