Alice, the daughter has been in New York where she wrote a novel that everyone is talking about. Clark Kent is a cashier at the bank, who Alice was engaged to before going to New York. She broke the engagement because she wanted a career. In the meantime Henry asked Alice to loan him a thousand dollars. Then Alice tells that she is not a success and has no money. Then Henry tries to get the money from Tom his bachelor brother. Tom is a photographer and also a vol- unteer fireman. Henry then finds out that Tom has no money.
