Plot Summary:Mrs. Damm and her children are seated on the porch when the postman arrives with a letter stating that their wealthy uncle would visit them. Mrs. Damm hustles the children into the house and they all get busy tidying things up for the expected guest. The boy feels the importance of the event but his sister is so lackadaisical she can't enter into the spirit of the occasion. Mrs. Damm, in addition to numerous other provisions, goes to the cigar store and orders a box of \"perfectos\" sent home. The tobacconist wraps up the box of \"smokes\" and lays them beside a box of trick explosive birthday cigars ordered by a previous customer, placing the name and address of each customer on the respective boxes. After Mrs. Damm leaves the store a meddlesome chap comes into the cigar store, looks at the cards while the proprietor is busy and gets the addresses on the boxes mixed; the consequence is the birthday explosives are sent to Mrs. Damm and her cigars are sent elsewhere. The anticipated uncle is met, escorted from the train by Mr. Damm and received by the whole Damm family with a hearty welcome. They remove his boots and put a pair of slippers on his feet, take off his coat and insist upon his donning a house coat. He is comfortably seated in a rocking-chair and, with much show of hospitality, the box of birthday cigars is brought to Uncle, who takes one, lights it and just settles back for an enjoyable smoke. The cigar explodes with a bang. He is furious and wants to leave the house at once; he can't stand practical jokes. The family assure him it must have been a mistake and they throw the cigars into the fireplace. Zip! Bing! Bang!!! The whole bunch of \"celebrators\" go off at once and the concussion knocks the old man out of his chair and upsets the rest of the family. \"Too much is plenty.\" The uncle packs up his things and leaves the place, turning a deaf ear to the entreaties of his relatives. He gets away and there is mourning in the Damm home although the children can't help but laugh; neither can we.
