A young woman is seen in thin film laughing at a youth, who, having fallen desperately in love with her at first sight, is ardently pressing his suit. Hearing footsteps in the passage, the young woman explains to her suitor that her husband is returning, and, terrified at the news, the timid Romeo jumps out of the window. He rushes down the street, and, seeing a messenger sitting on his stand at the corner, bribes the man to lend him his outfit; this accomplished he takes the boy's place and keeps watch over the residence of his Juliet. The husband returning, informs his wife in high glee that he has been appointed salesman for one of the largest crockery stores in the town, and before long is on his way to his new office, much to the satisfaction of the enamored messenger keeping watch. Passing by his unknown rival, our husband suddenly remembers that he needs a sturdy youth to carry his samples, so stopping before our disguised friend, bids him follow. Arriving at the factory the samples are loaded on the disguised boy's back and they march off bound for business. On their way they meet with all sorts of misfortunes, thanks to the carrier who, through clumsiness or inexperience in the art of carrying parcels, falls many times and the samples naturally suffer from all these different shocks. Disgusted, the salesman at last decides to take a bus to ride home with what remains of the valuable collection of china, but the unfortunate messenger slips again and he and his load of merchandise are dragged by the retreating bus until his precious burden is now reduced to splinters. Terrified, our lover rushes away, leaving his boss on the car, and reaching his sweetheart's home is trying to climb through the window when the husband suddenly returning chases the youth away, much to the amusement of the young wife.
