Merry housewife Mary Jane starts her day early in the morning by doing her myriad domestic chores. After using pitch-black boot polish as makeshift makeup, the reckless servant sets her mind on starting a fire--and when all else fails, she grabs a paraffin can, pours liberally on the seemingly extinguished fire, and out the chimney she goes. Will her untimely demise be a warning to all kerosene lovers?
