Synopsis: [The New York Clipper, 28 April 1906, page ?] Two had boys “plant” a piece of ripe Limburger in their Father’s tail pocket, and then “things happen.” His friends shun him, he is put off a trolley car, causes his stenographer to faint, and the office boy to move quickly for once. He creates a panic in a theater, and is thrown out. Wherever he appears, people hold their noses and ran, and he arrives home feeling very weak, but as “strong” as ever in other respects. The boys are found out and spanked, as they deserve to be, and peace reigns supreme.
