She defers giving a final answer to her rival young mountaineer lovers. It is understood that the first to give her a new dress will be the favored one. Both men save their earnings to this end. The expected day arrives. One gives her a charming dress and a mirror, the first she has had. The other comes to tell her he can give her his love as a loyal husband. His expected gift is not forthcoming. He leaves, seeing her decision for the other man written in her eyes. The next day. attired in the gown which is a delight to her, she admires herself in the mirror in a glade at the foot of a cliff. A rock descends from above and smashes the mirror as she gazes into it. Believing it to be the work of the rival lover, she hurries, angered, to his home. There she sees through the window a physician from the village attending the man's invalid mother. The savings intended for the girl's finery had gone to defray expenses for an operation. The rock which destroyed the mirror had become dislodged by the hoof of the horse bearing the physician to the man's home. His unselfishness and her own vanity are so forcibly brought before her that her mind is soon made up as to which man will make the better husband. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
