She is made welcome, because she is a woman of gifts, and will be a good companion for his housekeeper. She is much given to book reading which specializes in eugenics, and is much interested in the specimens she finds hulking about the ranch house, idling in the woodyards, and simply superb in the saddle. She finally picks out a stalwart cowpuncher and tells him, "You are satisfactory," but when she says, "I am yours," he flees in terror, knocking down everybody in his path. This does not discourage the specialist in eugenics. She finds Jack, another cowpuncher, who is throwing a lazy comrade out of a bunk, and she gives him a personal examination, tapping his teeth, examining his eyes for defects, and then nodding approval over his general condition. She loses her book, and the cowboys find it and get a few hunches on eugenics. Fearful of attracting her admiration, they disguise themselves as maimed, one with a broken arm, another with a wooden leg, others affecting various injuries. Finally it develops that Martha is wealthy, and Gabe, the best looking cowboy, secures her for a wife. As they start out on their wedding trip the various cripples throw away their fake fixtures and approve the alliance. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
