Alec Danvers, however, is not easily discouraged and forces his attentions on Alice to an ever increasing degree.l Alice plans a trip into the mountains and Alec becomes one of the party. Glancing through a magazine one day, Alice notices the hat advertisement, and at once is struck by the good looking young man illustrating it.

In the meantime, Alec has grown very disagreeable and one day out in the woods, he openly abuses Alice.
