Dick helps him out of the scrape, and
he in turn agrees to help Dick to marry
his daughter, in spite of Mrs. Cotton,
when he learns that his future son-in-1aw
is a founding. Miss Cotton is willing to
accept him at his face value, but the
mother is obdurate, and insists on his
producing a mother before marrying her
girl. Dick and the major start out on a
search for the formers mother. Both of
them become involved with music-hall
girl, '"TTickey Little Maybud." and Miss
Cotton confronts them as the artist is
doing some high kicking for their edih-
cation.

isfactorily, and he proves to be the bar
