The Sweep Will Call Tomorrow(1914)

Mr Mikkelsen, a merchant, is out on the town with his friends, enjoying a drink or five. At one point he spills soda all over the place, trying to remedy matters by drying off the tavern’s stove with his handkerchief. Being more than a little tipsy, he then proceeds to wipe his face with the sooty cloth. Stumbling home, he throws himself into bed, much to the horror of his wife, who mistakes him for the chimney sweep. (Stumfilm.dk)
