In this case our hero, a young painter, has met with so much ill-fortune that both he and his sweet wife are in dire danger of starvation. Daily he has visited the various art stores of Paris in vain attempts to market the products of his brush. On the particular morning that our story opens the young husband starts upon his trying trip from one store to another. Now his wife, feeling she is adding to the burden he has to carry, resolves upon ending her life. Meanwhile, the husband succeeds in selling his first picture and hastens home to give his good wife the news. He arrives to find a note bidding him a fond farewell. During this time the purchaser of the painting has providentially saved the wife from suicide and takes her to his home. The wife here recognizes the picture as one made by her husband. Then the philanthropist and his daughter plan a pleasant surprise for the young artist, presumably for the purpose of having some portrait work made. The wife is not informed of his promised visit. The meeting justifies all the care in arrangement. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
