Synopsis
Edgar Bumpus applies the methods of efficiency that he found so valuable in his business career to his campaign of winning the heart of Mary Pierce. Deciding that the "follow up" system works best, Edgar sends candy on Tuesdays and Fridays and flowers on all the other days of the week. Wimple, Edgar's rival for Mary's affections, plays the guitar, and so Edgar decides to learn the saxophone, much to the annoyance of Mr. Pierce who forbids the incipient saxophonist to visit his daughter. Edgar's persistence finally wins, however, and he succeeds in having Mary sign an agreement to forfeit $10,000 to him unless she marries him. Confronted with the document, Mr. Pierce consents to the marriage on the condition that Edgar throw away his saxophone.
