The Sky Isn’t Falling In
Augusta
By HARTWELL STILLWELL
Books upon books have we teach
ing us all the heights of human wis
dom ; experience upon experience
have we teaching us all the depths
of human folly; and then, after the
tale is so lengthily told, we have the
whole matter summed up in the nur
sery tales and rhymes of our child
hood which we are very sensibly
teaching the children of today.
We are consoled for our own fol
lies by the thought of the old woman
who “bought some cheese and butter
beans to make an apple-tart.” Even
our grosser indiscretions seem less
heinous when we recall the example
of that president In the relation of
whose tea-drinking we find the line:
“He takes it with brandy and thinks
it no sin.” Again, there is the reas
surance of “the owl and the eel anti
the warming-pan,” who, being disap
pointed in some pet project, “came
back by the way of the town and
turned the meeting house upside
down.”
All of these moral—or immoral, ac
cording to the point-of-view—instanc
es serve delightfully Individual pur
poses: but there Is absolutely noth
ing that so perfectly “points a moral
and adorns a tale" for Augusta with
her own peculiarities and especial re
quirements as the story of Henfiy
Penny, a story that does not seem to
be popular in any of the present-day
books for children, but which was a
prime favorite with ail the one-time
children who are the present-day
mothers and fathers. Because it is
in none of the new books where it can
he found easily, it has seemed wise
to the writer to tell it more than
once; so you may have heard it be
fore, even if you do not possess one
of tiiose hooks published in the early
seventies of the last century, and
even at the risk of everybody having
heard it before I am telling it again
because it so perfectly explains a
point that should be made here and
now. As the story Is possibly incor
rectly recalled, it runs something in
this way:
In the good old onee-upon a-ttme.
when all the world was young, and
animals talked as well as thought,
and when men realized that, not to
them alone belonged all possible wis
dom or folly, there was a certain
farm-yard where the hens and all the
other leathered folk were generously
fed every day. Upon a certain occa
! sion a grain of corn —one of those
undirected forces of which Ella
Wheeler Wilcox writes—hit Henriy
Penny on the head and Immediately
that demure young creature came to
he conclusion that the skv was fall
ing and that it was her hounden duty
to tell the king She started out on
her journey, strong in the conscious
ness of doing right. And so she gaed
mid she gaed and she gaed (what
ever that may mean), until she met
Cocky-Locky, who said: “Where are
von going, Henny Penny?" And she
answered: "The sky is falling, and I
am going to tell the king" “Then 1
will go with you," said Cocky-Locky.
So they gaed and gaed and they gaed
until they met Ducky-Daddies. “Oh,
tune to be divided among her chil
dren. and Alexander von Waldenburg
comes in for $50,000.
THE AUGUSTA HERALD
Jlenny-Penny and Cocky-Locky." said
Ducky-Daddies, “where are you go
ing?'' “The sky is falling, and we
are going to tell the king." “Then
I will go with you.” So they gaed
and they gaed and they gaed until
they met Uoosey-Poosey, who said:
“Henny-Penny, Cocky-Locky and
Ducky Daddies, where are you go
ing?” They answered: “The sky is
falling and we are going to tell the
king.' Then 1 will go with you."
So the four of them gaed and they
gaed and they gaed until they met
Turkoy-Lurkey. "Oh, where are you
going, Henny-Penny, Cocky-Locky.
Ducky-Daddies and Goosey-Poosey?”
"The sky is falling and we are going
to tell the kihg.” 'Then 1 will go
with you," said Turkey-Lurkey. So
away they all went, with a great gob
bling and crowing and clucking, until
they attracted the attention of a fine
looking fox sneaking by. The fox put
on his best company manners and
came forth with his finest bow.
“I am delighted to see you, ladies
and gentlemen," he said. “May 1 ask
where such a gallant company is go
ing this beautiful weather?”
Then they all began to tell him at
once in great excitement how the sky
was falling, and how they were all on
their way to tell the king about it.
The fox was apparently greatly im
pressed with this lofty mission, and
in the most humble tones begged the
inestimable privilege of accompany
ing them. This request was most
graciously granted, especially whpn
It was learned that the fox could show
them the most direct route lo the
king's palace. The entrance to the
royal road, it seemed, was a rather
close and dark thicket, into this, how
ever, t,he fox's friends followed con
fidingly.
"And then”—so the story concludes,
somewhat abruptly, we think—“hente
them all up.”
The application, as one readily per
reives, is as boundless as the sea. A
person with Henny-Penny proclivities
conceives the notion that the bottom
is about to drop out of a prominent
financial institution and everybody Is
told about it. Upon which lhnre ensue:
a great cackling and croaking and
running to and fro, and the forming
of a crowd that would hnve the power
to ruin cauntlesa thousands If it were
not for the common sense of one
guiding spirit having the wit to dis
tinguish a grnin of corn from a fall
lng sky and so work to cheat a de
vouring fox of its prey. A rumor of a
dreaded sickness stirs up the social
i farmyard to such an extent that one.e
I more Is there general ruin threatened
land only narrowly averted by the
j clear-sighted man who does tint see
I in one case of illness the toppling sky
lof an epidemic.
Every day a fresh grain of corn
I falls, and all the Henn.v-Pennya and
| (he Porky [sickles start off to tell
the king that the skv Is falling,
j Sometimes this sky Is the true blue
of a woman’s reputation against which
[tho smallest black cloud of scandal
shows with painful distinctness, or,
[again, It is a reflection on Iho good
habits of character of a professional
man whose unimpeachable tntorglty
and established sobriety form his

BERLIN- The people of Berlin
an the Eastern provinces of Prussia
are living in a constant dread of chol

est precautions are being taken to

yet been erected along the frontier,
but the authorities nrc prepared to do
so should any suspicious, cases ap

Emigrants leaving Russia for Ger

Worse, far worse, though, the story
of the falling skv threatens to engulf

reputation for good air. pure water

of it to increase its prosperity, to
attract capital and to make of It the
city it might be If only there were

Because there have been a large
[number of grains of corn, the fnlllng

The clamor Increases and the people

sky never falls and It never Is going

weak, but within a week after 1 had oommeuced taking Peruna 1 was like a
different woman.
"New life and vitality seemed to come each day until In a few weeks I

It h< estimated that Champagne will
produce only 88,000 gallons of wine
which Is no more than the average
annual output of one of the largest
vineyards. The growers are dismay

it has long been the practice to Im

Champagne from the Booth of France,

from Hungary and there to "chani

Unscrupulous dealers buy these
wines at. one-tenth of the price of
genuine champagne. The vineyard
owner!) sre up in arms against these
importers and have long called upon
the chamber for a law restricting tin
use of the name of Champagne to
winegrowers In that country. "The

Let us In Champagne show the same
