Dr. Chevrele takes a fancy to his benefactor's wife, unknown to the latter, Mr. Dupont. Dr. Chevrele manifests his admiration for Mrs. Dupont and is repulsed. Later, in revenge, he manages to secure the body of a woman of the streets who has all the facial characteristics of his friend's wife, and substitutes her for Mrs. Dupont, whom he spirits away to a low dive. When Mrs. Dupont awakens from the artificial slumber, she is led to believe that she is a notorious Moulin Rouge habituee. When Mr. Dupont returns from a decoy trip and finds his supposed wife lifeless in her boudoir, he calls for his friend, Dr. Chevrele. The doctor pronounces her dead beyond doubt. While tenderly caressing the lifeless form of his wife, the husband notices several marks on the woman's hand which makes him doubt the real identity of the body. When he violently questions the doctor in regard to this peculiar circumstance, the doctor cunningly motions to those about that the shock has unbalanced the unfortunate man. Immediately the physician spirits Mr. Dupont to an insane asylum, where he is incarcerated in a padded cell. The well-bred Mrs. Dupont, living in the unaccustomed atmosphere of the Parisian underworld, meets with many horrifying experiences and adventures. Her husband escapes from the asylum and is soon able to trace his wife through the doctor's designing efforts.
