Dorris Eames, an attractive young widow, is much sought by the opposite sex, but she treats them all alike. In spite of this fact, Bob Cary, a middle-aged bachelor, is very much in love with her. She gives a reception and Gerald Leighton shows his admiration for Dorris. At first she is amused at his attentions, and then consents to his calling upon her. He gives her his photograph and claims her. They become engaged and he gives her a ring; for the nonce she is a prisoner in spite of her better judgment. She goes to the convent and brings home her daughter, Lucile, to bear her company during vacation. Gerald comes to call, and is much impressed with the young lady, so much so, that he forgets his standing with her mother, and makes love in a hot-headed way that she overhears. The words beat upon the portals of her ears; she drags herself into her own boudoir and studies her face in the glass. Then for the first time she realizes that time has told and that youth will inevitably claim its own. She wisely determines upon heroic, but not vengeful action, slips the young man his ring and intimates that their little joke has ended without letting him know the truth of the matter as she has seen and heard. Fortunately for her, life holds better opportunities, and the faithful bachelor appears on the scene at the psychological moment and claims her.
