"This is quite serious," said the Tin Woodman. "If there were trees near by I might soon manufacture another leg for this animal; but I cannot see even a shrub for miles around." "And there are neither fences nor houses in this part of the land of Oz," added the Scarecrow, disconsolately. THIS IS QUITE SERIOUS SAID THE TIN WOODMAN IF THERE WERE TREES NEAR BY I MIGHT SOON MANUFACTURE ANOTHER LEG FOR THIS ANIMAL BUT I CANNOT SEE EVEN A SHRUB FOR MILES AROUND AND THERE ARE NEITHER FENCES NOR HOUSES IN THIS PART OF THE LAND OF OZ ADDED THE SCARECROW DISCONSOLATELY
ok backward, but not a trace of the field of sunflowers remained. More cheerfully, now they proceeded upon their Journey; but old Mombi had so changed the appearance of the landscape that they would surely have been lost had not the Scarecrow wisely concluded to take their direction from the sun. For no witch-craft could change the course of the sun, and it was therefore a safe guide. However, other difficulties lay before them. The Saw-Horse stepped into a rabbit hole and fell to the ground. The Pumpkinhead was pitched high into the air, and his history would probably have ended at that exact moment had not the Tin Woodman skillfully caught the pumpkin as it descended and saved it from injury.

For when his leg was pulled from the rabbit hole it was found to be broken short off, and must be replaced or repaired before he could go a step farther. WAS CLEAR BEFORE THEM THEN ALL PAUSED TO LOOK BACKWARD BUT NOT A TRACE OF THE FIELD OF SUNFLOWERS REMAINED MORE CHEERFULLY NOW THEY PROCEEDED UPON THEIR JOURNEY BUT OLD MOMBY HAD SO CHANGED THE APPEARANCE OF THE LANDSCAPE THAT THEY WOULD SURELY HAVE BEEN LOST HAD NOT THE SCARECROW WISELY CONCLUDED TO TAKE THEIR DIRECTION FROM THE SUN FOR NO WITCHCRAFT COULD CHANGE THE COURSE OF THE SUN AND IT WAS THEREFORE A SAFE GUIDE HOWEVER OTHER DIFFICULTIES LAY BEFORE THEM THE SAW HORSE STEPPED INTO A RABBIT HOLE AND FELL TO THE GROUND THE PUMPKINHEAD WAS PITCHED HIGH INTO THE AIR AND HIS HISTORY WOULD PROBABLY HAVE ENDED AT THAT EXACT MOMENT HAD NOT THE TIN WOODMAN SKILFULLY CAUGHT THE PUMPKIN AS IT DESCENDED AND SAVED IT FROM INJURY TIP SOON HAD IT FITTED TO THE NECK AGAIN AND REPLACED JACK UPON HIS FEET BUT THE SAW HORSE DID NOT ESCAPE SO EASILY FOR WHEN HIS LEG WAS PULLED FROM THE RABBIT HOLE IT WAS FOUND TO BE BROKEN SHORT OFF AND MUST BE REPLACED OR REPAIRED BEFORE HE COULD GO A STEP FARTHER
