Her high spirits attracted the attention of Deacon Slocum who held one of the good, old-fashioned mortgages on the dear old homestead and who threatened to foreclose unless Liz would consent to become Mrs. Slocum III. Liz didn't want to become a first wife, let alone a third and there was something about the Deacon's face she didn't like so she told him "No" with considerable emphasis and went to the country to earn the money with which to pay off the mortgage. She got a job quickly, but she lost it with even greater rapidity and an amusing succession of jobs appeared to be greased, she lost them with such startling rapidity. It began to look as though Liz's chances of raising the mortgage were similar to those of a snowball in certain localities when the bill board announcing amateur night caught her eye. Liz entered the contest and did her very best. Her very best was so exquisitely bad that they thought she was about the best "rube comedienne" ever. There was a music hall manager present and he not only gave Liz a job, but offered her a lot of money before he found out that she was not a clever actress, but the greenhorn he thought she was pretending to be. For two months Liz was the rage and when she went home and the Deacon came with the mortgage Liz had more than enough to pay him and he was foiled again.
