He vows never to rest more until she promises to be his. However, the next time he spies her, to his chagrin, he observes that she is wheeling a small baby. Life looks black to Eddie. She stops at the door of a department store. He is at her side in an instant. She trusts him and leaves the baby in his care. The baby cries. He takes it in his arms and goes in search of the girl. The girl returns and misses the child. He checks the baby in the store nursery. When he ultimately finds the young lady, he explains and offers to get the baby. Instead of giving him the original baby, the nurse gives him a colored child. He covers the face of the black baby and gives it to the young lady, then runs. She discovers the mistake and goes into hysterics. After a hot chase the young man is captured. The mistake in babies is righted and the young lady explains, "I must not let my sister know what happened to her baby this afternoon." The sun shines again for Eddie and he even offers to wheel "her sister's child" home. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
