Sylvia, a model in the shop of a fashionable dressmaker, is introduced to the Hicks family, which recently has acquired a fortune through iron ore deposits discovered on their farm. Octavia Hicks sees in the cultured but unpretentious Sylvia a good match for her son Henry and invites the young woman to visit the Hicks home. Two other visitors, Frank Hayward and his accomplice Annie, are masquerading as a count and a princess in order to con the country-born millionaires out of their money. The two are introduced to Sylvia, who soon discovers their plots and exposes them. A mysterious foreign gentleman appears and announces that the fashion model is actually the Princess Sylvia of Karalyn, but she renounces her title to marry Henry.

Man's Woman Synopsis

Violet Galloway, in charge of her grandfather's home, was accustomed to bossing things. But when she married Roger Kendall she was petted and pampered and had hardly anything to do outside of looking pretty and being well dressed. So she became discontented. At this time George W. Graham, a former lover, made violent love to her. Graham was district attorney and Kendall was Graham's assistant. Kendall was prosecuting the gamblers, but Graham tried to call him off when political pressure was brought to bear. The gamblers decided to "get" Kendall. Graham knew of the secret and a man who had been befriended by Violet found this out. The man sent a note to Violet. She risked everything by getting Graham to come to her home and was learning the secret from him when the murderer hired by the gamblers shot and killed Graham, thinking he was Kendall. Kendall, being told what his wife had done for him, turns out his maiden aunts, who created much of the trouble, and he and his wife are happy once more.
