Near a pond he came upon a heap of boy's clothes, and discovered their owner bathing in the forbidden waters. "If you don't come out, I'll take your clothes," said Mr. Pep to the small boy, who yielded to superior force. But Mr. Pep himself succumbed to temptation. The water looked so cool, that he could not resist, despite the warning sign. Along came the village schoolmarm out for a walk, and sat herself down under a tree beside the pond. In vain Mr. Pep dived and dived to keep out of her sight. The small boy returned at the moment, and seeing Mr. Pep in the water, promptly stole his clothes. Now Mr. Pep was in a hole. A large bee stung him on the top of his bald head, and a submarine turtle got him by the toe. His antics revealed him to the schoolmarm who fled for the police. Mr. Pep went on a hunt for some trousers. He entered the cemetery, and read the headstone of a prominent citizen wondering if he were buried in his pants. Along came a huge negro carrying a barrel. Mr. Pep saw his chance, and, scaring off the negro, took possession of his wooden trousers. Outside a kitchen window he is mistaken for the ash barrel, and a pan full of hot cinders sets fire to his beautiful wooden garments. He seeks refuge in the dog kennel. The old mammy brings the dog's dinner, which Mr. Pep devours, scaring her into a fit by his imitation of the dog. The farmer appears just as Mr. Pep is walking off with the kennel as clothes and shoots him in the rear. Mr. Pep comes to a stone-pile where blasting is going on. A big husky man is guarding the place. The explosion hurls them both into the air and they fall into the hole. Mr. Pep falls on top, and takes the chance to steal the other's clothes and run off in them. "You wear the dog house," says Mr. Pep. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
