"Then the Woggle Bug must swallow another pill," said Tip, decidedly, "and wish us headed in the right direction." "Very well," returned the Highly Magnified one; "I'm willing."

THEN THE WOGGLE BUG MUST SWALLOW ANOTHER PILL SAID TIP DECIDEDLY AND WISH US HEADED IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION VERY WELL RETURNED THE HIGHLY MAGNIFIED ONE I'M WILLING BUT WHEN THE SCARECROW SEARCHED HIS POCKET FOR THE PEPPER BOX CONTAINING THE TWO SILVER WISHING PILLS IT WAS NOT TO BE FOUND
 was the Scarecrow’s opinion, and the others agreed that the Scarecrow was the best judge of direction. After passing over several cities and villages the Gump carried them high above a broad plain where houses became more and more scattered until they disappeared altogether. Next came the wide, sandy desert separating the rest of the world from the Land of Oz, and before noon they saw the dome-shaped houses that proved they were once more within the borders of their native land. “But the houses and fences are blue,” said the Tin Woodman, “and that indicates we are in the land of the Munchkins, and therefore a long distance from Glinda the Good.” “What shall we do?” asked the boy, turning to their guide. “I don’t know” replied the Scarecrow, frankly. “If we were at the Emerald City we could then move directly southward, and so reach our destination.
