Princess Jones, a country storekeeper's niece who dreams of wealth and position, takes a vacation at a nearby fashionable resort--without realizing its cost--and meets wealthy Arthur Forbes, whose uncle sent him to the country to become an artist. Arthur's love for Princess leads him to buy her an expensive gown (Princess has given him a small amount of money for the purchase of a gown), which causes her to be mistaken for a Balkan princess by both the other guests and kidnapers; but Arthur rescues Princess and receives his uncle's approval of their marriage; and Princess becomes friends with the real princess.
