This is the best Larry Semon comedy that I've seen. He sticks to the basic situation of mixed-up babies and delivers a genuinely funny comedy. In most of his shorts there are so many explosions and sticky goo thrown everywhere that the gags don't serve the plot, but that is not the case in this film. Larry is a new father charged with watching has baby carriage while his wife goes shopping in a store. He spies a pretty nursemaid on a bench tending to an identical baby carriage. Meanwhile, a black lady with yet another identical baby carriage parks it at the front of the store also. Throw in some baby kidnappers and there are plenty of funny misunderstandings for the whole reel. And yes the title has a completely different meaning today.
