How the 'Duke of Leisure' Reached His Winter Home (1912)
Percival, a master-mind in the army of the deliberately unemployed, visits a fashionable restaurant and piles up a large meal by impertinent orders, but, before he gets a chance to eat he is detected and thrown out. He breaks a store window and so loudly proclaims his guilt that the police do not believe him. He tries to get arrested for "mashing," but the police again laugh at his futile efforts. He starts to begging and the police levy on his cash contribution. Finally he picks up a well-filled wallet, and is then arrested as a thief, so he spends six months where it is warm, and water is used externally and internally.
