A young lady who threatens to leave her husband if their home is not papered, is the means of the idlers obtaining work. They answer the husband's advertisement for paper hangers and get the job. But they have many adventures in the streets before reaching the scene of action. They are very indifferent paper hangers. Dunn compromises himself with the young lady by presenting her with hubby's flowers. Hubby arrives and breathes death to the man, who reveals himself in the guise of a woman and so escapes. Husband and paperhangers have a series of desperate chases in which pistols are used. Finally the two idle workers escape and revert to their occupation, as railroad hoboes.
