Plot

As described in a film magazine,[3] Mildred Carr (Clayton) is a working class wife who has saved her money and marries Lew Alden (Baxter), a struggling business man. After five years of married life, a financial crisis occurs so Mildred loans her husband her savings apparently through a third party, which causes Lew to leave her when he discovers the fraud. She goes back to work and, after he regains his losses, he asks her forgiveness and they make up.
