Stock sold rapidly through the workings of this combination. Pretty Miss Blackwell, who kept the only boarding-house in town, was interested and frequently visited by Jim Bangs and his accomplice, old man Skathaway. One day the local accommodation stopped at the little station and a handsome, debonair young man alighted. Grip in hand he strolled down the main street, finally arriving before the office of Jim Bangs. He read with a derisive smile the placard which adorned the front door, when his face lighted with sudden inspiration. Why, this was surely his old pal Jim Bangs of New York, with whom he had operated many a confidence game in the past before the reformation which made of him a traveling salesman.

He advised her against the stock deal and told her of his past. Jim Bangs was also busy. Finding his field invaded, he promptly notified old Skathaway, who stirred up the populace against him.

The traveling man and Miss Blackwell watched the proceedings from the office porch. Then, taking up his suitcase, the ex-confidence man bade her a sorrowful farewell despite her entreaties and left town by the next train, confident that for once in his misspent life he had done the community a good turn.

The niece is tall and lean, while Barbour is of the other type, fat. Mr. and Mrs. Forrest are very much attached to each other and at every opportunity express their love in a most pronounced manner, much to the disgust of Mr. and Mrs. Patton. Mrs. Patton, however, is a very frivolous woman and conducts a secret correspondence with a certain Armand. During the course of business at the office of Messrs. Forrest and Patton, a telegram is received, which necessitates their leaving for Sardinia. Mrs. Forrest is thereupon placed by her husband in charge of Julien Barbour, who is instructed in strong terms to guard his (Mr. Forrest's) dear wife and household while away. The wily Mrs. Patton is determined to take advantage of her husband's absence and for company induces Henriette to join her to the shore, stopping at the Hotel Sea View, for she is to meet Armand there. Now poor Julien Barbour is no match for the clever Mrs. Forrest, who succeeds in entrapping him through a letter he is induced to write expressing his love for her. Using this as a threat, she succeeds in joining Mrs. Patton on the trip to the Hotel Sea View. When Barbour finds his mistress gone, and being deeply concerned about his charge, he determines to follow her, and although he misses the train, he continues his pursuit by inducing an engineer to follow the fleeting pair. Forrest and Patton, upon arriving at the dock to leave for Sardinia, find the boat going out. What can these two poor husbands do under such trying circumstances? The summer season being at its height and its oppressive heat adding discomfort to disappointment, they naturally decide to spend the day at the shore since, at any rate, they cannot return in time to their place of business, and so we find them at the very hotel selected by their wives, who are supposed to be at home. The hilarious part of the comedy now begins with the two husbands let loose, one of whom though is deprived of his joyous plans on account of taking a dose of medicine for seasickness, since he felt certain of catching the boat for Sardinia. One of the plans of Mr. Forrest in order to hide his identity is to use the visiting cards of his secretary, who is also at the shore, being busily engaged guarding his attractive mistress. The effect of the double burden of responsibility now heaped upon the shoulders of poor Barbour may be imagined, but what follows should be seen on the screen.
