When Buster Brown and Mary Jane, his sister, learned that Mrs. Benton was going to bring her baby over to their house, they immediately decided that the imminent visit held forth some promise of excitement. In accordance with their decision, immediately after the arrival of the baby and Mrs. Benton, Buster and Mary Jane centered their attention on the carriage which had served to bring the Benton heir Brownwards. Buster discovered a suit of clothes in his father's closet, and instantly decided that it was exactly what he needed, so he stuffed it carefully with newspapers, and brought it down to the baby carriage. When the stuffed clothes were placed in her carriage, they bore an uncanny resemblance to some tired and weary soul, who, overcome by fate or the insidious ravages of alcohol, had sought the baby carriage as a refuge from the unhappiness of an adverse and misunderstood world. Curiously enough, Buster's father watched the entire proceedings from the shelter of a doorway. When Buster and Mary Jane crept away chuckling, to spring the joke on their long-suffering family, Mr. Brown removed the dummy and took its place in the baby carriage. Thus the stage was set for events of rare and surpassing moment. A kindly veil must be drawn over the terrible things which happened when Mrs. Brown and Mrs. Benton rushed out to join battle with the reported usurper of the baby's place. Let us only hint that, in addition to the human contestants, a large and uncannily wise dog, named Tige, and one active and diabolic goat played no small part. The only safe conclusion which can be drawn is that the only person who really enjoyed the proceedings was the baby.
