The town of Glendale was stirred one day by the advent of Alice Reynolds. The next day she is searching about the station and, when questioned by the station-agent, tells him of the loss of a ten dollar bill, the corner of which was slightly torn. The station-agent acquaints the village boys of her loss and they all aid in the hunt, but to no avail. She leaves weeping and the boys’ hearts are touched. Bud Hoover, one of the boys, hits upon a scheme to try to get into the good graces of the young lady. He takes a ten dollar bill, tears the corner of it, calls upon Alice and gives her the money, claiming to have found it. She thanks him and gives him a flower as a reward. Bud’s success sets the boys a-thinking. He is no sooner gone than Silas Gray hits upon the same plan and gives Alice a ten dollar bill with a torn corner, telling her he had found the money. Still another boy, Cy Smith, thinks the same brilliant plan and he, too, gets a flower. Bud proudly tells the station-agent of his luck. Silas comes next and Cy brings in the rear. They all have the same tale to tell. When notes are compared, they realize that they have been stung, and starts for the hotel as Alice leaves with suitcase, steps into station bus, and tells driver she must catch the 2 p.m. train. The bus passes the boys on its way to the train, but they are not aware it contains the girl. At the hotel, the clerk informs them she has gone. They dash out and make a bee-line for the depot. The girl sees them coming and with a laugh, steps on the now moving train.
