Mrs. Tittlemouse is a fastidious little mouse, living alone in a very clean house. Whenever another animal or insect comes to her home, she shoos it away and sweeps up after it; but when a swarm of bees make their home in one of her store-rooms she is pressed to allow her boorish toad neighbor Mr. Jackson to evict them. After he leaves, she laments the terrible mess made of her home, and sets to work straightening things up.
When she is satisfied, she gives a civilized party for five other mice, but must solve the problem of Mr. Jackson, who arrives uninvited, following the smell of honey. She has, however, anticipated his rude behavior and prevented his entry by diminishing the size of her doorway. She hands out some refreshment through the window and he happily enjoys it on the lawn.
