Sammie's big mammy orders him to do some chores, but he is engrossed in reading a lurid periodical in which the capture of wild animals is the main theme. Sammie dozes off and dreams that he, too, is a mighty hunter. His dream takes him to the wilds of Africa, where he has many humorous encounters with lions, tigers, boa constrictors and untamed elephants. Sammie during bis hunting expedition comes upon an ostrich with its head buried in the sand and mistakes it for a cocoanut tree. He arouses the wily bird and meets with several harrowing experiences trying to capture it. Sammie gets from one difficulty to another with rapidity. Just as he is about to be devoured by a ferocious beast he is awakened from his adventurous dream by the well-directed stream from a hose played by his angry mammy.
