4 Devils

A clown rescues four children from the brutal tutelage of a circus owner and brings them up himself, training them to be acrobats. Years pass, and the children form a trapeze act known as the Four Devils. Charles and Marion are engaged, but while in Paris, Charles becomes infatuated with a vamp. Marion learns of the affair and becomes distracted; working without a net for a dangerous finale, she falls. Marion is not killed, however, and Charles is brought to his senses by the near tragedy.
