Synopsis

Jimmy Munroe, a newspaper reporter writing an article on "the average woman," encounters Sally Whipple in the library and follows her for material. Sally, whose father is a judge, has the reporter arrested and "sentences" him to visit her once a week. Meanwhile, she is being courted by Van Alten, secret owner of one of the city's most disreputable roadhouses. He forces Sally to agree to marry him by presenting a packet of letters, written by her mother, which he believes to be evidence to embarrass the judge. Whipple deems the letters of no importance: Sally is released from her promise and marries Munroe.
