The Blood Barrier Synopsis
Eugene Solari is fanatically jealous of his beautiful wife Enid. While on a mission for her father, she visits Major Trevor. Her husband finds out and, enraged, rushes to Trevor's house. Enid tries to beat him there to warn Trevor, but is too late--when she gets there Eugene shoots her and then kills himself, but not before he names Trevor as his killer. Trevor is arrested for his murder. A foreign agent, wanting a secret formula that Trevor is in possession of, kidnaps Enid and gets word to Trevor that he will clear Trevor's name and return Enid to him if Trevor will give him the secret formula.
The Common Cause Synopsis
Helene Palmer and her husband Orrin have grown apart, and she becomes infatuated with bachelor Edward Wadsworth. With the outbreak of World War I, Orrin and Edward enlist, while Helene works as a Red Cross nurse in a small French town. Edward is wounded on a dangerous scouting mission near the town and Orrin carries him to safety. The enemy invades during the night, and Orrin rescues Helene as she is about to be overpowered by a German officer. The dying Edward, morally strengthened by his experience as a soldier, encourages the couple to reunite. Soon after, peace is declared.
