Comedy.
Revies: [The Moving Picture World, 1 May 1915, p. ?] A two-reel Syd Chaplin picture which has no lack of action and would be considered one of the best of the Keystone farce comedies. Gussle and his exacting wife take a water trip, during the course of which some remarkable acrobatic feats are performed, which ends in Gussle and the fat man of the picture landing in the water. The rescue of the two comedians is a funny piece of business.
