Lonesome Luke delegates to sell some literature and receives a large folder containing general info about his wares. To become an adept in that particular line, one must be a born poet and our hero has no very great difficulty to make himself that. A busy man at his office is just the proper one to trap into a deal because even his employees, in their haste, fail to have time to eject droppers in at the orders of the boss. Luke selects just such an establishment and "goes to it" with the usual selections of chin music. He fails thrice to sell his wares, but succeeds admirably in causing havoc in the home of the pen-pushers. Later in the day unkind fate takes him to this man's home where his arguments with the wife prove futile. While in between gaps he consumes the contents of a refreshment decanter. Inclined to be spoony, Luke goes to the park to hunt himself a partner and meets with this same man's daughter. Spooning under difficulties in the park, she takes him home, telling him that her father will buy his volumes. Now as we know, Ma and Pa have seen the stranger before and very handily beat him up within a half inch of the law.
