Unaccustomed to city ways, they meet with many accidents and have trouble with the traffic cop, but finally reach the fair grounds. They saunter past a tent on which is a sign reading, "Kiss the Prettiest Girl in Springfield for 50 Cents." Rube breaks away from Sally and goes in. He shows the "prettiest girl in Springfield" a wad of money that he has saved during the past year, and she at once accepts his invitation to see the fair with him. The manager, disgusted at losing his vampire, goes outside, sees Sally and drags her in to take the part. In comes a dandy who becomes stuck on Sally. She refuses to kiss him and proceeds to tell him how she came to be there. Finally Rube's money becomes exhausted and the girl becomes frigid and leaves him. Rube is bewildered, but cured. He sees Sally and her new friend stroll by and appeals to her, but they laugh at him and, crossing the street, enter an automobile and drive off. Rube leaves the fair disconsolately.
