a baby daughter,
The rich uncle, who Is possessed of
tho globe-trotting fever, decides to
visit his nephew and the letter which
was to inform thorn of his coming be
ing delayed, ho arrives very unoxpect
cdly upon tho sceno; Billy just has to
have a wife, so ho borrows tho wife of
his friend to whoso sister ho is be
trothed. Many aro tho complications
which arise therefrom, but tho morrl
est ono is when tho Undo nsks'for tho
infant, Clifford having neglected to
mention to his friends that ho had told
Uncle that ho had a child also, Once
more his friend Dr. Morrey is appealed
to and whether for rovengo for having
to stand idly by nnd sco his wife ca
ressed by another or just out of a pure
spirit of fun, the doctor produces the
baby but it is of tho unbleachod Amor
ican typo. This causes further com
plications, all of which keep Charlie in
hot water all tho time. Tho doctor
growing weary of tho deception goes
to tho French ball and invokes tho aid
of Charlie to help him squaro himself
for remaining away from homo all
night. As usual Chhrllo makes a bun
gio o the explanation, causing a rup
turo between tho doctor and his wife.
Finally finding that further elaborato
lios nra useless, the uncle is enlight
ened as to the truth of tho condition of
affairs and forgives all for their decep
tion nnd all's woll that ends well.
