No sooner is she gone, however, than Jed seats himself to have a good smoke, a forbidden pleasure in the house. Judy, returning unexpectedly, surprises her frightened husband and taking him by the ear, marches him into the kitchen to wash the dishes, while she sits calmly in the sitting-room to wait until he has finished. As he is carrying the dish-pan to the sink it falls, breaking his wife's best china. With one glance toward the sitting-room door, Jed dives through the window, and when Judy gets to the kitchen, Jed is already half way down the street. Arriving at the village, two of his friends take him to the nearest bar to give him a little "courage," but, after spending an hour with them, Jed decides it would be best to take a quiet little nap before approaching his loving wife, and accordingly, climbs into an empty box-car, which is soon bearing the sleeping Jed to the glorious west. Some time elapses. Judy, not having heard from her husband, has accepted an offer from a western mining camp to act as cook, and is accordingly met with due deference by the foreman. His gallantry and that of the boys is entirely lost on Judy, and she at once starts in to rule the camp with an iron rod. It is at this point that Jed, who is in the vicinity looking for work, meets the foreman and is offered a job. He meets his wife face to face when he enters for dinner, and, terror-stricken, he makes a dash for the door, overturning tables and chairs as he goes. The boys, however, soon overtake him and listen in sympathy to his explanation. Taking their lariats, they rig them up as though to hang Jed, believing it will excite the compassion of Judy, but, instead, she snatches up a whip and proceeds to wield it with all her strength until the boys succeed in roping her and getting her to the house. The next day Judy sets out, bag and baggage, with her husband in tow, bent upon returning to their little town. At the railroad station, Jed dutifully helps his wife upon the train, but just as it starts to gather speed, Jed swings off, to the glee of the waiting boys and the utter consternation of Judy. Then, lest she should return, the boys hurry him upon a horse with the advice "to keep right on a-ridin." Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
