king with amazement at the end of the pepper-box. “What’s happened?” asked the boy, a little ashamed of his recent exhibition. “Why, the three pills are in the box again!” said the Scarecrow. “Of course they are,” the Woggle-Bug declared. “Didn’t Tip wish that he’d never swallowed one of them? Well, the wish came true, and he _didn’t_ swallow one of them. So of course they are all three in the box.” “That may be; but the pill gave me a dreadful pain, just the same,” said the boy. “Impossible!” declared the Woggle-Bug. “If you have never swallowed it, the pill can not have given you a pain.

We’ve wasted one wish already.” “Oh, no, we haven’t!” protested the Scarecrow. “Here are still three pills in the box, and each pill is good for a wish.” HAT PILL THEN AT ONCE THE PAIN STOPPED AND THE BOY ROSE TO HIS FEET AGAIN AND FOUND THE SCARECROW LOOKING WITH AMAZEMENT AT THE END OF THE PEPPER BOX WHAT'S HAPPENED ASKED THE BOY A LITTLE ASHAMED OF HIS RECENT EXHIBITION WHY THE THREE PILLS ARE IN THE BOX AGAIN SAID THE SCARECROW OF COURSE THEY ARE THE WOGGLE BUG DECLARED DIDN'T TIP WISH HE'D NEVER SWALLOWED ONE OF THEM WELL THE WISH CAME TRUE AND HE DIDN'T SWALLOW ONE OF THEM SO OF COURSE THEY ARE ALL THREE IN THE BOX THAT MAY BE BUT THE PILL GAVE ME A DREADFUL PAIN JUST THE SAME SAID THE BOY IMPOSSIBLE DECLARED THE WOGGLE BUG IF YOU NEVER SWALLOWED IT THE PILL CANNOT HAVE GIVEN YOU PAIN AND AS YOUR WISH BEING GRANTED PROVES YOU DID NOT SWALLOW THE PILL IT IS ALSO PLAIN THAT YOU SUFFERED NO PAIN THEN IT WAS A SPLENDID IMITATION OF PAIN RETORTED TIP ANGRILY SUPPOSE YOU TRY THE NEXT PILL YOURSELF WE'VE WASTED ONE WISH ALREADY OH NO WE HAVEN'T PROTESTED THE SCARECROW HERE ARE STILL THREE PILLS IN THE BOX AND EACH PILL IS GOOD FOR A WISH
