Chaplin was left-handed. He was just taught to write with his right hand (as it was a custom to do so back then)... There are clips of him playing tennis, and he holds the racket in his left hand.
Much of silent film was filmed at 18 frames per second. Modern standard is 24 frames per second. Many of the silent films such as this one are converted to 24 frames per second which makes them look fast and jumpy. Good restoration will rerun the films at their original rate. I have seen this short at its appropriate speed and it looks much better.

i think im related to the cinematographer because my last name is totheroh... weird man. I've only come across maybe 2 other Totheroh 's besides my immediate family....

Chaplin was a socialist. Americans seem to find this very difficult to understand.
