Synopsis
Jealous of her husband's commitment to the development of a formula for explosives, an American wife consorts with an attentive ladies' man called Anton Tell, unaware that he is actually Graff Von Aachen, a German spy. At Anton's urging, she steals the formula and gives it to him "for safekeeping," but upon learning that her husband's experiments have been sponsored by the government, her patriotism is stirred and she apologizes. Hoping to retrieve the formula, she rushes to Von Aachen's home, and as she fights him, her husband and Major McClintock of the U.S. Secret Service arrive. The formula is recovered and the spy apprehended. When the husband later enlists in the army, his wife joins the Red Cross.
