Plain Jane

John Adams is working his way through college. Jane is the little slavey in his boarding house. John at first has no idea of falling in love with Jane, but she is completely gone on him from the beginning. In fact, he has his eyes on Ethelda Rathbone, a young college girl. There came a time when John wanted to attend a ball at which Ethelda was to be present, but he hadn't a dress suit. Jane chanced to become aware of this, and with her scanty savings rented him one. Of course she couldn't tell him she did that, but she pretends that it was left there by a former boarder. So he goes to the ball. But boys will be boys, and his classmates rip the coat up his back, and he is compelled to come home without having seen Ethelda at all. Jane takes the suit back to the dealer, unaware that it is ruined. When the dealer discovers it, he demands payment. There follows a scene in the street in which she is humiliated. It was then that old Frederick Verstner, the town photographer and a man of considerable means, came to the crowd. Hearing her pitiful story, he made good the amount to the dealer. Shortly after this, Jane went to Verstner's to have her picture taken that she might give it to John. A newspaper in New York was offering a prize for the most beautiful photograph of a college girl, and Verstner's was crowded with girls from the school. Verstner took a picture of Jane, and, by loosening out her tresses and placing something filmy about her shoulders, he made her look beautiful. Through a course of circumstances, and without Jane's knowledge, this photograph is sent along with the others to the paper. And it wins the prize. Jane is, of course, as much surprised as the rest. And so is John. Verstner adopts the girl, educates her and makes her the most popular girl in the place. And then comes a great awakening for John.
