A show troupe comes to town and the boy takes her to the show. Jane falls in love with the tenor of the opera, who is a German of the name of Pumpernickle, and decides to marry him or no one. She turns down her country lover. The next day she appears at the opera house for a position in the chorus. This is given her for the sum of ten dollars. That evening she practices dancing at home, and her mother, thinking she has St. Vitus dance, administers paregoric. Her initiation in the chorus proves her hopelessness as a dancer. However, she sends the tenor a basket of flowers. The country lover transfers the flowers and puts in their place cabbage, onions and other vegetables. Instead of being angry, the tenor is pleased with the vegetables. As he is kissing Jane's hand a stout German woman appears with one or two children; she is angry and indignant, and proceeds to beat him with the contents of the vegetable basket, announcing to Jane that he is her husband. Terrified, Jane flees amid a shower of onions. That evening her country lover brings her a peace offering of a bantam egg, which, in the excitement of his reconciliation, he breaks in his pocket. Jane is cured of the stage and decides to settle down in her one-horse town. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
