Alice Roland is deeply in love with John Reynolds, cashier for a large firm, and on one occasion she accompanies him on one of his trips into the country to pay off employees. It happens that on this particular day the bag containing the pay budget is stolen from the automobile, and Reynolds suspects Alice of the theft. On reporting the loss, the young cashier is discharged. Alice, determined to clear her lover's name and to prove to him how he has misjudged her, has her suspicions diverted to a certain George Rawlings, a rival for her love whom she finds is by no means well disposed toward Reynolds. She succeeds in discovering that Rawlings is the head of a band of crooks, and tracing him to their headquarters, she finds and recovers there the lost bag of money. The taxicab in which she is making her escape, however, is overtaken by the gang. Only the timely arrival of Reynolds and the police save Alice. The thieves and Rawlings are arrested, the money returned to the firm, and the girl's heroism is amply rewarded by her penitent lover's redoubled devotion.
