Synopsis: [?] [From The Moving Picture World]? Bragg has the physical culture fad, but when it comes to a showdown he weakens. Shame, however, forces him to resent an insult offered Mrs. Bragg by the butcher, and he punishes him. The meat purveyor falls, and Bragg, getting blood on his hand, thinks he has killed him, and for a while is a self-accused fugitive from justice. Mrs. Bragg, with the aid of the police captain, keeps up the hallucination, until he is cured of his “strong-arm” mania.
