He laughs at one poor little wretch who is dragged from a harmless card game at the club by his aggressive wife. When the doctor calls at his brother's, his niece and nephew pull him around and climb all over him and almost deafen him with drums and trumpets. Gene is a young widow. One night while almost insane from want and the knowledge that her infant is perishing for the necessities of life, she leaves it in a basket on Jack's doorstep. He takes it in, to the consternation of his solemn butler who hates children. After getting some eats for the little one, the butler is sent to get the doctor's married sister. They come back in an auto full of toys. She takes charge while the disconsolate mother returns to her lonely room and laments over the empty cradle. Jack decides to adopt the baby. The next morning the mother goes to the river to kill herself, but is stopped by a child who is picnicking. She is so starved that she gladly eats the crusts the picnickers have left and reads in the newspaper that had covered these crumbs an advertisement for a nurse. She sees it must be for her own child and applies and is engaged. It is not long before the woman-hater is angry at himself for falling in love with the attractive nurse and decided to get rid of her before he proposes to her and sends his butler for a grim and homely woman to take her place. Then he summons courage and tells her she must go, but she defies him to separate them and tells the secret. When he learns she is the child's mother he goes back to the new nurse, and giving her dome money, he silently waves her away. Then returning to the sorrowing mother he tells her they need never part for he loves her. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
