"WHY AREN'T YOU
IN THE ARMY
By J. w. Pegler

United Press Staff Correspondent
London, Jan. 16.-"Why aren't you
in the army?"
Next to calling man a German,
that is the favorite insult, amount
ing to Fighting words" now in use
in London. The civilian hasn't much
chance of a comeback except with
his fists so if he retorts at all it is
usually with his right.
The waiter with a little gold or sill
yer stripe on his sleeve, meaning that
he has been shot or gassed, throws a
sneering glance at the civilian diner.
The soup is cold and the diner says
SO.
"The soup isn't cold in the army"
is the walters comeback. "Why aren't
you there?"
As the CONSUMPTION Act exempts no
body without reason, the civilian has
good legal right to be civilian.
But he can't go into details about his
tribunal healing, so he scrapes the
walters head with ketchup bot
| tie.
| But the civilian usually gets the
worst of it regardless of whether ne
succeeds in Furnishing his tormentor.
Public opinion just naturally drifts
against him.
1t is the same on the street If ne
accidentally bumps into another Pc
destrian. He may apologize but II
resentment isn't appeased the an
jured party reels off the crownlnt
insult.
Americans generally escape because
their "accent" excludes them from
English army consideration. But once
in a while someone makes mistake
as bus conductor did with a New
York chauffeur.
"Why aren't you in the army" de
manded the conny, after trivial ar
gument.
The New Workers. reply was made
to order.
"Sa-ay, listen, Cockney," he said
contemptuously; "my army has hcke'
yours twice, and if they have to d.
it again I'll be with 'em."

One of the largest seed houses in

Company, Sixth and Alameda streets,
Los Angeles, have just received the
first edition of their new 1917 cata-

such as hints to the home vegetable
gardener, how gardening may be
made easy, etc. In fact, the supple
mentary book called "'The Garden
Manual" which heretofore has been
printed separately, is this year incor-
porated in the big annual, and it is
claimed to be one of the most COM
plete seed books published. 1t con-

garding all varieties of plants listed
and is fully illustrated. Not only
does it tell all about seeds, but it
gives full data concerning the cor

turists should use to obtain the best
results. Valuable hints on poultry,
spraying, fertilizing and the use of
insecticides are also given.
The Aggeler & Musser Seed Com
pany will gladly send this descriptive
illustrated and interesting catalogue

"See-all you have to do is to use
your two fingers and lift the corn
right off. That's the way 'Gets-It'
always works. You just put on about
2 drops. Then the corn not only
shrivels, but loosens from the toe,
without affecting the surrounding

All Europe rang with the jests, sneers,
ribaId songs, salacious stories, and bitter de-
nunclatons leveled at these monks and nuns
who practically lived in the same institution.
In spite Of those solemn engagements to
live in porcHY. the world saw the monks
rayenously grabbing riches: in spite of the
vow Of obedience, men knew that the monks
defed the pope and in spite of the VOW of
chastity, the monks owned their brats around
the monastery, and the popes owned theirs, in
the Vatican.
Again and again Italy was drenched in
blood and Europe couvulsed with, war, be-
cause Of the efforts Of popeS to bestow crowns
and municipalities upon their bastards.
Doesn't Mr.. Howell know that?
