The Adventures of a Madcap Synopsis

Jean, a waif, is adopted by old Jason, and acts as an assistant to him in the culture and sale of his flowers. She is loved by Owen, a country swain, who hesitates asking her to be his wife because of her erratic, irresponsible gaiety. One day she returns home to find old Jason dead in the garden. Her grief knows no bounds, and she knows not what to do. However, the Gordons, a childless couple, take a fancy to the child and bring her to live with them. But her wild life is poor preparation for the conventional drawing rooms of the rich, and tired of the life, she runs away. Attired in the garb of a boy, she joins a gypsy camp. Carlos, one of the men, engaged to Carmio, falls in love with her, and one night, to escape his attentions, she hides in a deserted shack. He follows her, and Carmio, seeing him, runs back to the camp for help. She comes across the Gordons and Owen, and with them arrives back at. the shack in time to save Jean from an awful fate. The picture ends charmingly with Jean and Owen in the roles that "all the world loves."
