One day Mrs. Waring's maid upstairs hurt her finger and was sent home. There was no one to fasten the gowns of her mistress and Elizabeth Waring, when they came to dress to go out that afternoon, so Mrs. Waring telephoned down to Madigan and he sent them Mary Ann. The little girl looked with amazement upon the lavishness and finery she beheld in the Waring apartment, and when she went back to the basement it was with glowing thoughts of beautiful things to wear. On their way out, the Warings left the key to their rooms with Madigan, so that Franklyn Gilbert, Mrs. Waring's brother, who lived with them, might get in during their absence. Mary Ann, succumbing to curiosity, went upstairs and let herself into the apartment. There Gilbert, who was something of an old reprobate, found her, and instead of chiding her for trying on Elizabeth's clothes, brought her another and finer gown, bidding her put it on. The unexpected return of Elizabeth and her mother precipitated matters, and Mary Ann was somewhat sadly disillusioned regarding "the world upstairs." But Bobby, her sweetheart, soon restored her faith in life. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
