Mustaches and Bombs (1915)

"Pay over $5,000 or we'll drop a bomb on your doorstep." These startling words greet Hubby on a placard in front of his house. He remembers having seen some mustached men mysteriously wandering about that morning. As he goes down the street, every person with a package terrifies him, especially any man with a mustache. Someone drops a loaf of bread and Hubby runs for his life. Someone else picks up a round object and hands it to him. The man has a mustache. Hubby hurls the "dangerous" object back and then another race for life is on. A policeman stops them and he gets the mysterious package. He breaks it over Hubby's head. It is a head of cabbage. Hubby goes home and finds a doctor with a mustache attending his wife. He binds and gags the physician. Then a group of persons return and ask for the placard. They are motion picture actors and Hubby learns his mistake.
