Tho story in brief concerns ah Egyptian girl, whose insane desire for flirting has caused her royal father no little worriment, and after having all the available marriageable materia in her own native country, she decides to run away and visit America in quest of further prey. Her father, who, for political reasons has made plans for her marriage, im mediately sends his guards in pursuit to America in an endeavor to induce her to return home, and in order to frustrate his plans, the Princess as sumes a disguise, entering into a mock marriage with nn American chauffeur in order to claim the protection of a real "Stars and Stripes" husband. This happens to be "Sporty Bangs" (Bulger), who is already married, and has a terrible time straightening things out to his real wife, tho subsequent condi tions giving rise to no end of ridiculous compuciiuun.s. ao imiui iui uiu piui.
