Miss Heim, getting ready for the marriage, finds her slippers need repairing. Going to the cobbler shop she is admired by Mier, the cobbler, who forces his love on her. She resents and leaves. During this time Schultz finds his shoes need mending. Going over to Mier he tells him of the wedding, and inviting him, shows the picture of the girl. Mier is sore, and swears revenge. Finished fixing Schultz's shoes, he goes into the side room to polish them. He discovers an idea smelling his Limburger cheese. He puts it in Schultz's shoes. When Schultz arrives at the wedding everything goes lovely till the minister drops his book at Schultz's feet. Getting the smell from the shoes the minister looks Schultz over. Mier, arriving, takes this all in from the other room. Miss Heim, excited and nervous, drops her handkerchief at her lover's feet. In picking it up she smells and then the trouble starts.
