Sweedie, with her arms splattered by dough, looks out the window and sees her mistress just mounting he horse for her morning ride. The simple, toilsome life straightway becomes monotonous and Sweedie prepares to go and do likewise. She calls up her Romeo, who is a captain of the mounted police squad, and tells him to come with two horses prepared for a canter. Her faithful swain obeys instructions. Sweedie dresses in a nondescript riding habit and starts. She finds it difficult to mount the steed and when she does she learns that riding is not as easy as it looks. Meanwhile her mistress returning to the house, finds Sweedie's absence annoying. She sends out a general alarm for Sweedio's arrest. Here Romeo comes in again, for he pursues her and brings her home under arrest. Sweedie is cured of her love for that sport.
