Mrs. Jones writes a letter to Mrs. Smith, unfolding a scheme to keep their men at home. She proposes robbing her house disguised as burglars, and then tying themselves up, leaving their husbands to assume that they have been maltreated and that their place was home. Mr. Smith finds the letter, and determines to show up their scheme. The plan works out all right; all the loot is packed, but the scheme is spoiled by a real burglar arriving, and after really tying up the women, walking with the spoils. The men return, and give their wives a hearty laugh. However their laughter turns to tears when they discover that it is no hoax, but a real burglary. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
