- James Lambert, a man of the world, is smitten with the charms of Lucille, a pure and sweet little girl, and breaks with an old flame, May Chambers. With vengeance in her heart, May Chambers sought Lambert, and revenge. Believing her purpose accomplished, though it had really miscarried, she found surcease of sorrow in oblivion, and the dark waters of the river closed over her. For a few months Lucille reigned the undisputed, but uncrowned queen of a fool's paradise. Then came Irene Wallace on Lambert's horizon, and in the effulgence of her attraction, the light of Lucille's love paled and faded in his heart. And back in the humble cottage, two breaking hearts yearned for the return of an erring child, and the lamp of a mother's love was ever burning, as a beacon-light, to guide the frail, storm-tossed bark to a haven of peace and rest. The joyous peal of wedding bells rang out, but not for Lucille. Deserted, with her little infant, she drank the cup that all must drink, whose thoughtless steps tread the "primrose path," and the bitter dregs of that cup was reached when she read the announcement of Lambert's approaching marriage. Outraged by the injustice done her innocent babe, Lucille resolved to act. Standing before God's altar, with Lambert's child in her arms, she denounced his craven act, and those about him shunned him with loathing, till he stood alone, with an accusing conscience in the presence of his maker. Meanwhile, the dear old parents' hearts were gladdened, for their little sunshine had re-entered the home, and her innocent babe would renew their own joyous youth, even though a stain were upon its guiltless head. The old father took down the family Bible and read, "Trust in the Lord, and He shall make all things right." And that promise soon found fulfillment, for Lambert, brought face to face with his sin, saw the light, and was led to repentance. So one day, came a letter to Lucille, from Lambert, offering his name for their child. The little mother's heart welled up with joy, for the man she still loved, the father of her babe, had been redeemed.—Moving Picture World synopsis
