Very pleasant is the word, therefore, received from his father, while abroad, that his allowance will be trebled if he marries at a given date. Jim hits upon the scheme of tricking his father into trebling the size of the check through leading him to believe that he has married in accordance with his wishes. His pleasures are rudely interrupted by a cablegram advising that his father is en route for America. In desperation, Jim proposes to the girl of his heart, who despite her inclination, feels that she must be given more time for preparation. At his wits' end, Jim calls upon his pal, Uncle Dudley, who undertakes to see him through the predicament Wig, skirts, corset, bustle, dress and all are hustled over the coat and trousers of the genial Mr. Fixit. Jim's father enters at this point and takes quite a liking to the bride. Trouble begins when Jim's real sweetheart enters the room and discovers what apparently seems to be duplicity. She mixes it up with the impostor and much to his chagrin relieves him of his skirt and bares the plot. Uncle Dudley has a hard time in squaring it with the policeman who takes him to jail.
