Bad Boy's Joke on the Nurse

Edison summary: A matronly-looking nurse girl is asleep on a park bench, with a baby in her lap. Directly opposite sits an old gentleman, snoozing. Two bad boys appear on the scene. One gets a log of wood, about the size of the baby, and after removing the baby, places the log in the nurse's lap. They then place the baby in the old gentleman's arms, and scamper off to await results. In a few moments the fat nurse wakes up and discovers the baby gone. She tosses the log away, and commences to scream and run up and down the walk. Suddenly she discovers the youngster in the old man's lap. She grasps the baby, and after placing it upon another bench, returns to the old man. Catching him roughly by the neck, she drags him from the bench to the walk, and after giving him a good shaking, she knocks him down and sits on him. Her screams attract a policeman to the scene, and the old man is roughly hustled off to the station house, followed by the angry nurse, carrying the cause of all the trouble. The boys have been enjoying all the fun from their hiding place.
