John Queerphiz and Jane Apeface exchange bogus photographs. These photographs are so appealing to the parties in question that they resolve to be married by telephone. The matrimonial knot is tied, and Jane arrives at her husband's home. Consternation ensues when each spies the other's face. Both aggrieved by the doubtful compliments naturally cast resolve to consult a beauty doctor. They do so and a transformation results in both of them. They meet again while thus transformed, and fall in love with each other. They make an engagement to meet the following day. Jane goes home and is followed by Queerphiz. Jane, not recognizing him, tells him to leave, as her husband will be home soon. Finally they recognize each other despite the beauty disguise, and a struggle ensues in which wigs and false hair are scattered around promiscuously. Both fall exhausted to the floor, and a physician summoned, pronounces death caused by heart failure. When he leaves the two recover.
