Susie, the Sleuth

Susie would be a detective. When her lover, Hank, calls at the lace counter of Stockton and Co., where she is employed, and gives her a book called "The Lady Detective," she is overjoyed. Now, thinks she, "I will become a real sleuth." That day, while her nose is buried in her book, a shoplifter steals some goods from her counter. Though Susie's mind is in dreamland, the store detective is on the job and has her arrested. He then gives Susie a good calling down, hurting her professional pride. Mr. Stockton, the head of the firm, has a young wife who has a weakness for tango teas. He forbids her to indulge in this type of amusement, and threatens to put detectives on her trail. While passing out of the store, a piece of lace catches on Mrs. Stockton's sleeve. Susie, thinking her a shoplifter, follows her out of the store. Mrs. Stockton sees the lace and puts it into her muff, deciding to return it next day. Susie follows her to a tango parlor, where Mrs. Stockton sees her, and thinking Susie one of her husband's spies, begs her not to tell. This makes Susie sure of her ground, and she has her arrested. Stockton, hearing of his wife's arrest, hurries to the station house, and explanations follow. Susie succeeds in losing her job and shattering her pet ambition.
