One day one of the Chinese servants takes ill, and Lois goes to their cabin to see the sick man. There she sees an opium pipe, and upon smelling it the odor appeals to her. At last she is persuaded to try the pipe, and in a short time has become addicted. Her husband notices the change in her and writes her father and sister to come. On the day that her father and sister are to arrive, Lois goes to the hut of the Chinese to get some of the drug. But while she is there the two Chinamen quarrel over the disposition of the money she gives them, and in the struggle the lamp is overturned and the house is set on fire. Lois, thinking that it is better to have her husband think that she is dead than discover the truth, runs out and hides in the woods. Later she falls lower and lower, until she ends in a low dive. Here her sister finds her and tells the husband, but when they arrive the poor creature is dead. Small is now sadder than ever, as he has not even the tender remembrance of his dead wife to comfort him. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
