A Few Signs.

According to the signs plain to all
farmers who keep their eyes open this
is going to be a hard winter. In the
first place, the tails of all the pigs
born in May have been tied up in hard
knots since the middle of October, and
this would settle the case if there was
nothing more to come, but there is.
All the fences in the country have
been leaning towards the north for the
last month. That is to prepare them
for the winter gales.
W~oodchuchs seldom dig out bur-
row over four feet deep. This fall
they hired steam shovels and went
down twenty feet or more, and then
insisted on feather beds at the bottom.
In ordinary winters the frog thinks
it is good enough for him if he can
bury himself under a foot of mud.
This winter they have gone down five
or six feet and taken a supply of coal
with them.
The birds got away south two weeks
earlier than usual. Some subtle in
stinct told them that there were not
leggings enough to go around.
The potato vines and turnip tops
wilted q full fortnight earlier thar
last year, and that is a sufficient hint to
any farmer to get his wooden socks
ready. !,
Hens quit doing business early If
November to lay by a supply of energy
In Michigan and Wisconsin is was
noticed they grew fur as we'll as feath'
ers.
The lower hinges on most barr
doors began working loose six weeks
ago in order to give tramps a chance
to crawl under them.
AS early as November first tn
farmers hired man showed an incl
nation to cling to his bed in the morn
ing and it required two whoops and
boot to get him down stairs at4 o'clocl
to do the chores at the barn.

TRUTH.

j. ] Graders Philadelphia, Pa.
In the silent night out of the deep,
1t lightly trod and hailed the king,
Who woke as in a troubled sleep,
Aghast he stood before the Thing.
In raiment white and sad of MEN,
Lifes tragedy traced on it's brow,
who art thou that enterest here un,
SEEM"
otis truth that stands before thee
now"
Though trembling with fear his hard
ened heart
Took courage and he laughed with
Scorn,
He babe the vision to depart,
And tyranny was then reborn.
Then to the peasants home Truth on
ward sped,
Where dwelt the toiler by the sea,
Who woke and on the walls thus read
Truth enslaves no man but sets all
free.
Wraths mighty visions rose that night
Truth crushed to earth shall rise
again,
Thrice armed is he who fights for
right
And crowned is he who is nobly
slain.
And laundering down throughout the
ages,
When wrongs Cypress the sons Of
men,
The hope lies writ on history pages
Truth crushed to earth shall rise
again.

ing jewish Tor American names. The
discussion was suggested to Reb
weeks ago, my son-in-law, Barclay
Chaprinsky, decided to change his
family name Chaprinsky to Chambers
which is really American name.
His own name Tuvia Der he had
some time ago, changed to Thomas
Barclay, but to change the name of
Chaprinsky to Chambers he had to ap-
ply to lawyer to get the matter leg
ally through the courts. In his appii-
cation, my son-in-law, in other words
the lawyer declared that the name
Chaprinsky caused him much trouble
and that it caused him suffering Of
both material and spiritual nature
Reb Chain then summarizes this
explanation which was to the effect
that the name Chaprinsky harmed the
owner of it in business and embar-
ressed him in the presence of Amer
leans.
When Reb Chain tried to reason
with his son-in-law against changing
his Jewish name, Mr. Chaprinsky re-
torted;
rs Chaprinsky a Jewish name?
When my great grandfather lived in
Russia, such a name was suitable for

my grandfather and for my father,
because they lived in Russia But l
live in America, and why should |
bear the name which a Moscovite pol
ice official had selected for my great
grandfather. The name causes me
much annoyance; it hurts me in my
business and injure me socially, and
my boy, Max, will suffer from the

registers in the school as Max Chap
rinsky"
1t is hard to argue with young peo-
pie" says Reb Chain, they all talk
so we'll, though we, the elder people,
are the ones who are in the right"
But the matter of changing the name
of Chaprinsky to Chambers was not
smooth sailing for all.
The lawyer was careful not to have
the case brought up before a Jewish
Judge, but the Irish judge, before
whom the matter actually came up,
proved even less favorable than
Jewish judge might have been.
"Chaprinsky," said the Judge, Il
