Synopsis
According to a provision in his uncle's will, society man Deems Stanwood is obliged to live in the country. There he decides to raise chickens on a farm adjoining that of Julia Stoneman. When the trustees mismanage his investments and lose the fortune, Deems fails to make the farm pay and is forced to mortgage it to Willie Figg, his young rival for Julia. By chance she discovers the loss of Deems's fortune and takes over the mortgage from Willie, who is about to foreclose. Finding the release papers in his pocket, Deems realizes that she loves him, and she accepts his marriage proposal.
