HIS FLOURISHING FAMILY, I discovered from the mail that Where are 671 relatives of mine in Wnglend thet I knew nothing about The greater part of these ‘were cousins, and they gave very detailed family tree tracings in support of their claims. All of them wished to be set up in busi- Bess or tc get into the movies. But the cousins did not have a monopoly on the relationships. ‘There were brothers and sisters and aunts and uncles, and there were mine claiming to be my mother, telling wondrous adventure stories bout my being stolen by Gyp- wies, when a baby, or being left @m doorsteps. until I began to @hink my youth had been a very hectic affair.

INVITED TO JOUST WITH WINDMILLS. Some of the letters were most in- teresting. Hore are a few samples: “Dear Mr, Chaplin: You are a leader in your line and I am a lead- er in min». Your specialty 1s mov- ing pictures and custard pies. My specialty is windmills. “I know more about windmills than any man in the world. I have studied the winds all over the world and am row in a position to invent a windmil! that will be the stand- ard mill of the world, as it will be made so it can be adapted to the winds of the tropics and the winds of the Arctic regions, “I am going to let you in on this in an advantageous way. You have only to furnish the money. I have the brains and In a few years T left a perfectly good mother back | apy vam QTE: NEA will make you rich and famous. You ie | hid better phone me for quick ac- | tion, “Yours truly.” THE LURE OF BURIED TREASURE, ' Mr. Chaplin: My brother is aid is buried. He has charts d maps and everything neces- | sary, including a pick and shovel. But ‘he can not pay for the boat. “Will you pay for the boat and half the gold Js yours? All you need do is say yes to me In a let- ter and I will go out and look for | John as be {s off somewhere on a | bat, being a what you might call | But a drinking man when ashore. I am ‘sure that I can find him as he and i drink in the same places. Your shipimate.” CHANCE TO MEET DRUSILLA. “Dear Mr. Chaplin: My daughter has been helping me about my boarding house now for several years ani I may say that she un- derstands the art of catering to the public as wishes to stay in quar- ters. But she has such high-toned idéas, like as putting up curtains in the bathroom and such, that at times I think she is too good for the boarding house business and should be having her own hotel to run. “It you could see your way to buy a hotel in London or New York for Drusilla, 1 am sure that before long your name and Drusilla's would be linked together all over the world because of what Drusilla would do to the hotel business. And she Mould save money because she can make all tho beds and cook her- | ing pawn checks for self and at nights could invent the touches like what I have men- tioned. Drusilla is waiting for you to call hes. ABOUT GRANDMA'S FALSE TEETH. “Dear Mr. Chaplin: I am Inclos- grandma's false teeth and our silver water pitcher, also a rent bill showing that our rent was duo yesterday. Of course, we would rather have you pay cur rent first, but if you could spare it, grandma's teeth would be acceptable, and we can't hold our heads up among the neigh- bors since father hocked our silver pitcher to get some beer,” (Continued To- Morrow.) oh Caparidty 1921, by, the, McClure, Newspaoer yo FRENCH LINE PICTURES NORTH AFRICAN TOURS Picturesque North Africa Shown in Films at Aeolian Hall. A panorama of age-old civilization untouched by that of the modern na- tions ‘which goes on #0 near it, was shown last night by the Compagnie Generale Transatlantique which, at Acollan Hull in West 42d Street, dis- played motion pictures of the North African ‘tours which have been ar- ranged by this steamship line. The films followed the course df the traveller on the various tours in the Barbary States, Morocco, Algeria and tho Desert of Sahara with all the move- ment and quaintness which character- tzea life {n that far-away part of the world. Until recently the interior of Morocco and Algeria was closed to the traveller, but now, under French control, travel: lers are admitted everywhere.
