Be It Ever So Humble

Joe, a stage driver, is engaged to marry Ruth, a beautiful singer and the pride of the town. Mr. Morton, an operatic impresario, attends a concert at which Ruth sings. He knows he has found a genius. He calls and makes her a direct offer that staggers her. Not knowing what to do she asks for time to give her decision. He and the horrified Joe drive off. A little way out Joe asks Morton to get down and see something. He accedes. Joe takes him up a path to a pretty little new cottage. He tells him that it is his gift to Ruth. It does not make much impression on the hard business man. A sudden rage comes upon Joe and he strides out after Morton and chokes him. He might kill him but for a gentle touch on the arm. He looks around and sees Ruth with her hat and her grip; she has decided to go. She would kiss him, but he says, "No, not till you return to me." Ruth makes a success but does not find happiness. One night she has her triumph, and flowers and costly presents are sent to her dressing room, but one little box containing half withered violets appeals to her most. They are from the home that was to have been hers. The revulsion comes and Ruth throws up the fame for love and returns to the little cottage.
