The story

The film contrasts the story of two women: The first, a well-dressed lady, leaves her elegant building and is taken in her carriage to a department store. While she is in the store, she steals several items, and is caught by store detectives. The second, a poor woman with two small children, steals a loaf of bread out of desperation, and is quickly caught and arrested.
