A young lad selling newspapers on the streets of New York City chances upon another boy who has lost his identity and has no clue where he comes from or how he ended up in New York. But the pair form a successful partnership selling newspapers. Eventually, the "mystery boy" is re-united with his parents, leaving his partner the proprietor of a flourishing newsstand. - Summary by Anthony St. Pierre
