Plot

As described in a film magazine review,[5] Jane, a house slavey who dreams of a Prince Charming, is named Cinderella by an artist whose studio she cleans because she always talks of wonderful things that will one day befall her. A policeman who at first suspects her of some mischief falls in love with her, and, after she recovers from an illness caused by exposure, he proposes and is accepted.
