said to the reporter. Il grow almonds,

wouldn't be in it if it wasn't. 1t is fine
business. | never have no trouble at
all.
Queer things happen sometimes?
Oh, yes, sometimes, guess. Let me see
now Let me see."
Putting slowly on his cigar, the west
ern almond grower tried to think OF
something queer to tell the reporter
Finally he said:
'The ye1lowhammers bothered me
last harvest time. They came by thou
sands to my almond orchard, and, carry
ing off my nuts in their beaks, they
stored them in the hollow limb of an oak
"That wouldn't do, you know.
Il studied a bit, and then l cut off the
hollow oak bough, and substituted for it
long wooden funnel, made to look as
much like bough as possible. Beneath
this funnel put basket. Then, chuck.

well, my scheme buncoed the yell
lowhammers. It buncoed them. The
poor birds couldn't tell the funnel from

were laying up a fine store of nuts, they
dropped almond after almond into the
funnel. Every night l collected big
basketful of nuts that had been harvest

THE LOWING OF THE COWS.

And the haws are blazin' red.
An the sweet-gums are a-flamin'
Out in crimson overhead,

That I'm longin' to be goin'
Where the sleek old cattle low.

OF the scalawags O. dogs,

OF the gruntin' of the hawgs
Rootin' in tn sandy hillside
Up above the rivers flow;

Is to hear the cattle low.
Want to see the big old live oaks,
And the pasture like park,
With the candle bugs a-fittin'
Back and forward 'gainst the dark
When the autumn sun is settin;
Want the Gavin Of the crow;
But the mainest thing long for
Is to hear the cattle low.

NERVOUSNESS OF WOMEN.
English Writer Says They Are in Cen
eral Stronger Than Ever
Before.

Women Of the present Cay are said to
be more nervous than women at any
previous period This Of course is
largely the opinion OF pessimists ex-
pressed in, an exaggerated manner, says
the London Daily express. Undoubted-
ly the woman of to-day suffers from
nerves" But this has always been
common complaint among women ct all
times. The last generation was neu-
rotic, other generations had insistently
convenient attacks of sNmegrlms."
The pessimist never wesrieS Of enlarg-
ing upon the strain and stress of mod
ern life, the rush of travel, the restless
ness of great social centers, the incessant
poaching on the hours of the night the
eternal increase in the number Of work
ing women Yet in reality il the strain
on women be greater than ever. the fact
that they are able to endure it proves an
increase in nervous power rather than
q decrease. The woman who works for
her living to-day has far stronger nerves
than her predecessors ever possessed.
She stands the strain year in and year
out; the women Of few generations
ago could not have stood it for month.
1t is also futile to point to the rush OF
modern travel as a nerve-Gestroyine
force. At the present day there is less
nervous waste in crossing a continent
than there was a hundred years ago in
a journey from London to Bath in the
stuffy interior of a numbering coach.
Where among the women Of old whose
TauTed could yya find tbc
woman who could drive a motor car
without tremor through street crowd
ed with tratflc? The most competent
authorities declare that never in the
history of the race has so excellent q
type of woman been evolved as the av-
erage woman of to-day.
