When city man Dick Stowell comes to take the position of mine superintendent, gets lost in the desert in a blinding sandstorm, and is found and picked up by Bill Peters, his finer sensibilities receive a shock at the rude way in which food is prepared and eaten in the cabin. However, he falls in love with Winnie and she with him, but he treats her as though she were a child, which makes her angry. After making Sam Duncan, who is in love with Winnie and jealous, apologize for certain remarks, Dick tells her, "the women he knows do not kill rabbits, get angry, and stamp on flowers." Old Man Peters is fatally wounded in a mine explosion, and his dying wish that Winnie be sent to the Frisco convent for education is carried out by Dick. She returns a full-fledged young lady and Dick is more in love than ever, and when she mischievously dresses up in her old rags and tattered hat she wore when he first saw her he starts to propose on the spot. But she impishly demands at the point of her rifle if he "likes little girls who kill rabbits and stamp on flowers," and at his "Yes" surrenders into his arms.
