A crazy man imitated Charley Chaplin so cleverly in a Kentucky theatre that the audience thought he was the real Charley. We see no reason why any insane man, with enough brains left to know how to fall down, could not do the same. Once there were giants in the land, men who could scrap to bent the band. In modern times the cheapest skates are known as champeen heavyweights, but long ago, when Jim was young, men didn't fight with jaw or lung, but used their fists, and used them well brave days of Jackson and John L.l They slugged away, while they could stand, when there were giants in the land. And Corbett won his laurels then, among those mighty fighting men. He was the champion when that meant something inoie tlutn getting fat, and standing, in a graceful pose, to figure in the movie shows. He's an authority on sport, and his decrees the wise ones court. He's an authority on smokes, and as his trusty pipe ho stokes, he often says, "Tuxedo's best; it has the edge on all the rest." W'tfw -(fr- rymj 'J. iTioww is " l f5 II A i 1 JAl J.
