剧情简介: May and Annie work in a fashionable millinery store, where the buyer, struck by May's beauty, advances her to a position among the models. She gets a little money, but finds that she is obliged to wear better clothes, which she has a hard time getting. When Curtiss, a very gentlemanly individual, appears upon the scene and is evidently attracted to May, she gives the cold shoulder to Joe, the wagon driver, who is in love with her, and allows Curtiss to pay her marked attention. Annie, her friend, warns her that the newcomer may not be on the square, but May, in her struggle to make both ends meet, wear good clothes and to hold her job, allows herself to be buoyed up by the dinners and theaters which Curtiss lavishes upon her. In time also she permits him to buy her an expensive dress. The next day, seized with remorse, and fearing Curtiss, May asks permission to return the dress. He directs her to the supposed dressmaker, in reality, a procuress, and Joe, following her thither, discovers her danger. Curtiss arrives on the scene of the trap he has laid for the girl, and he and Joe fight it out. Thus the wagon driver rescues May from the clutches of "a gentleman."'
