Details:

A misleading note which Mrs. Recentwed received and which Mr. Recentwed unfortunately found one morning aroused the poor husband’s jealousy. Mr. Recentwed’s business partner ridiculed him for his primitive methods and advised that the sure way to punish an erring wife was to play her same game. Mr. Recentwed was at last persuaded to try the plan. Her actions had made it obvious that Mrs. Recentwed intended to entertain a certain “Harry Leiber” at her home at four o’clock on the afternoon of the day that the note was found, so Mr. Recentwed was obliged to hurry some to find “the other woman.” He tried his maid at first but with dire results. Then his stenographer, but vowing vengeance, she left his employ. Next he went to an employment agency. But when he tried to explain his mission to two fair maids direct from Erin’s Isle, he met with sad disaster. Quite desperate he wound his way to the Marriage Bureau and told the broker that he, a widower, wanted a prospective bride quickly. Becky, long on the waiting list, quickly responded. Mr. Recentwed winced when the lady, an Amazon, greatly lacking in beauty, appeared, but as there was not time to be discriminating, he closed his eyes, braced himself and led the lady forth. A few moments before four o’clock, the time set for the arrival of the wife and her “lover,” Mr. Recentwed led Becky to a settee within sight of the front door, and gingerly began making love. A most loving attitude was discovered by wifey as she appeared in the doorway, followed by the lover, her college chum, “Harry” Leiber, otherwise known as Miss Harriet Leiber. Weeping, shrieking and demanding explanations began and when Becky realized that she had been fooled, her Amazonian strength became evident. A bruised, tattered Mr. Recentwed and a wrecked house was the consequence. Not until complete demolishment did Becky depart. With difficulty then did the innocent mischief maker bring order out of chaos. But it was a tattered chastened spouse that was at last forgiven by a justly indignant Mrs. Recentwed.
