In a fit of jealousy Mary gives her John his engagement ring, and flounces off to a summer resort to nurse her wounded pride in solitude. She finds little of the desired privacy in the gay hotel, and she seeks it on the ocean waves in a light canoe. Not being a graduate in navigation, she comes to grief, and crawls up, wet and much annoyed, upon an uninhabited island. The first object she comes upon, lying under an oak tree like a dropped acorn, is her John. Mary's annoyance is considerably increased when she learns from him that they two are marooned there as hopelessly as Crusoe. She spurns his offer of his own dry clothing, and they agree to meet as little as they can. As night comes on, the cold becomes stronger than her pride, and she is glad to creep out from behind her rock and beg for the comfort of the rejected coat. By morning the aching void where her breakfast should he puts another crimp in her spirit. Mary gets an object lesson in the high price of food. They breakfast on a microscopic fish, the best specimen that the incomplete angler, John, can lure to his hook; but not until the mischievous lover has first secured his payment in kisses from the famished and exasperated Mary. In view of the dimensions of the meal the cost of living seems to Mary unreasonably high. in short, John improves the advantage of his position so thoroughly that by the time they are rescued by a passing doryman and taken back to the hotel Mary has all but forgotten her rage against that mean horrid "Rosie." John shows her to Mary through his spy glasses, dancing innocently on the waves, her name written in beautiful gilt letters about her stern, "ROSIE!"
