It is a laugh producer
by deickemeyer2019-02-11

"A special feature in two parts. Produced by Ralph Ince, the plot of which resembles very strongly the old comedy of "Jane" with the babies cut out. However, it is a laugh producer. Uncle Joe (Adelbert Roccardi) insists that his nephew shall marry and settle down. He is foolish enough to inform his uncle that he is already married. The uncle arrives and, to deceive him, the nephew borrows his friend's wife. This brings about the comedy complications. - The Moving Picture World, September 19, 1914..."
