Synopsis

Patsy Smith is kidnapped by her father when she's a baby, after having a fight with Patsy's mother. When her father dies at sea, Captain Barnaby takes Patsy to a boardinghouse run by Mrs. Duff. Inspired by the Captain's tales of Aladdin, she goes on a hunt for her father's oriental lamp which Mrs. Duff has sold to a junk peddler. After finding the lamp, Patsy buys it and starts to rub it and the Genie Jehaunarara appears. The genie transforms her room, restores the Captain's leg and turns Mrs. Duff into a rag doll. However, the genie can't reunite Patsy with her mother, because it is beyond his magic. After the genie wins first prize at a masquerade ball for his attire, Patsy applauds and unwittingly causes him to disappear. Upset, Patsy throws the oriental lamp out the window and barely misses hitting her friend Harry, who wants to become a lawyer and then president. Patsy finds letters in the lamp that lead her to locating her mother, who arrives with her brother, who is now a judge. Harry now daydreams that he is president and Patsy is his first lady.
