“I shall return with my friend the Tin Woodman,” said the stuffed one, seriously. “We have decided never to be parted in the future.” [Illustration: image309] “And I have made the Scarecrow my Royal Treasurer,” explained the Tin Woodman. “For it has occurred to me that it is a good thing to have a Royal Treasurer who is made of money. What do you think?” “I think,” said the little Queen, smiling, “that your friend must be the richest man in all the world.” “I am,” returned the Scarecrow. “but not on account of my money. For I consider brains far superior to money, in every way. You may have noticed that if one has money without brains, he cannot use it to advantage; but if one has brains without money, they will enable him to live comfortably to the end of his days.” “At the same time,” declared the Tin Woodman, “you must acknowledge that a good heart is a thing that brains can not create, and that money can not buy. Perhaps, after all, it is I who am the richest man in all the world.” OME DAY I MAY ACCEPT THE INVITATION BUT WHAT IS TO BECOME OF THE SCARECROW I SHALL RETURN WITH MY FRIEND THE TIN WOODMAN SAID THE STUFFED ONE SERIOUSLY WE HAVE DECIDED NEVER TO BE PARTED IN THE FUTURE AND I HAVE MADE THE SCARECROW MY ROYAL TREASURER EXPLAINED THE TIN WOODMAN FOR IT HAS OCCURRED TO ME THAT IT IS A GOOD THING TO HAVE A ROYAL TREASURER WHO IS MADE OF MONEY WHAT DO YOU THINK I THINK SAID THE LITTLE QUEEN SMILING THAT YOUR FRIEND MUST BE THE RICHEST MAN IN ALL THE WORLD I AM RETURNED THE SCARECROW BUT NOT ON ACCOUNT OF MY MONEY FOR I CONSIDER BRAINS FAR SUPERIOR TO MONEY IN EVERY WAY YOU MAY HAVE NOTICED THAT IF ONE HAS MONEY WITHOUT BRAINS HE CANNOT USE IT TO ADVANTAGE BUT IF ONE HAS BRAINS WITHOUT MONEY THEY WILL ENABLE HIM TO LIVE COMFORTABLY TO THE END OF HIS DAYS AT THE SAME TIME DECLARED THE TIN WOODMAN YOU MUST ACKNOWLEDGE THAT A GOOD HEART IS A THING THAT BRAINS CANNOT CREATE AND THAT MONEY CANNOT BUY PERHAPS AFTER ALL IT IS I WHO AM THE RICHEST MAN IN ALL THE WORLD
