The husband/wife directing team of Lois Weber and Phillips Smalley are responsible for this adaptation of Booth Tarkington's story. Cora (Marie Walcamp) is the flirt who is being pursued by all the town's eligible bachelors. But this selfish young woman finally meets her match in Valentine Corliss (Juan de la Cruz). Corliss, a charismatic swindler, encourages her to rook her suitors out of their money to fund his crooked business dealings. Cora falls in love with him, but ultimately she realizes that she is being used and marries one of her faithful admirers. Corliss, meanwhile, is killed by another of Cora's beaus. ~ Janiss Garza, Rovi
