The story concernsfhe problems of the Fowler family, who are “on the down grade,” through inertia on the part of the mother, the broken spirit of the father, and the resulting criminal tend- encies in the young son George. Jenny, the oldest daughter, is the backbone of the group, with her sister Milly, who has become too “disgusted” to struggle any longer, as her sympathizer. The swry of Jenny's sacrifices to save her rother from disgrace, and his duplicity he face of them, is revealed, reach- mz a climax when, through his acts, she is arrested on the charge of stealing money that George himself had taken. Uncle Ben steps in just in time to save | the situation, straightening out Jenny’s | predicament and offering to give the| family a new start out West where his copper mines have netted him a for- tune, .
