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 stock In trade.
