Boy meets girl. Boy falls in love with girl, who is socially far more upwardly mobile than he. Girl secretly loves boy (a big no-no!), but her father (who happens to be boy's boss) has arranged for her to marry another man of rank and status. Man of rank and status arrives with his entourage of sisters, cousins, and aunts to meet girl. Girl tries to flee with boy but is foiled by a one-eyed villain. A lowly traveling saleslady is madly in love with the girl's father, but cannot marry him because he is above her station and class.  She confesses later to "baby farming" and everything goes haywire...
