Newton Craddock is a shipping clerk in the same company where Thomas Kirkland is Vice President. Another thing they have in common is that they both have jealous wives who like spending all of their husbands' money. One day Craddock is sent to Kirkland's house to deliver an important letter, and while there he watches as Kirkland finally confronts his wife about her spendthrift ways. It gives Newton the gumption to do the same to his wife--but will he?
