of the entire party. “You make me quite ashamed of myself,” said the Scarecrow, bowing low to the Saw-Horse. “Nevertheless, the creature is right,” declared the Woggle-Bug; “for twice one-half is one, and if you get to one it is easy to count from one up to seventeen by twos.” “I wonder I didn’t think of that myself,” said the Pumpkinhead. “I don’t,” returned the Scarecrow. “You’re no wiser than the rest of us, are you? But let us make a wish at once. Who will swallow the first pill?” “Suppose you do it,” suggested Tip. “I can’t,” said the Scarecrow. “Why not? You’ve a mouth, haven’t you?” asked the boy. “Yes; but my mouth is painted on, and there’s no swallow connected with it,” answered the Scarecrow. “In fact,” he continued, looking from one to another critically, “I believe the boy and the Woggle-Bug are the only ones in our party that are able to swallow.” Observing the truth of this remark, Tip said: “Then I will undertake to make the first wish. Give me one of the Silver Pills.”  IN SURPRISE FOR THE SAW HORSE WAS CONSIDERED THE MOST STUPID OF THE ENTIRE PARTY YOU MAKE ME QUITE ASHAMED OF MYSELF SAID THE SCARECROW BOWING LOW TO THE SAW HORSE NEVERTHELESS THE CREATURE IS RIGHT DECLARED THE WOGGLE BUG FOR TWICE ONE HALF IS DONE AND IF YOU GET TO ONE IT IS EASY TO COUNT FROM ONE UP TO SEVENTEEN BY TWOS I WONDER I DIDN'T THINK OF THAT MYSELF SAID THE PUMPKINHEAD I DON'T RETURNED THE SCARECROW YOU'RE NO WISER THAN THE REST OF US ARE YOU BUT LET US MAKE A WISH AT ONCE WHO WILL SWALLOW THE FIRST PILL SUPPOSE YOU DO IT SUGGESTED TIP I CAN'T SAID THE SCARECROW WHY NOT YOU'VE A MOUTH HAVEN'T YOU ASKED THE BOY YES BUT MY MOUTH IS PAINTED ON AND THERE'S NO SWALLOW CONNECTED WITH IT ANSWERED THE SCARECROW IN FACT HE CONTINUED LOOKING FROM ONE TO ANOTHER CRITICALLY I BELIEVE THE BOY AND THE WOGGLE BUG ARE THE ONLY ONES IN OUR PARTY THAT ARE ABLE TO SWALLOW OBSERVING THE TRUTH OF THIS REMARK TIP SAID THEN I WILL UNDERTAKE TO MAKE THE FIRST WISH GIVE ME ONE OF THE SILVER PILLS
