Wednesday, the day which the people OF Gross
htifeten made soap. and when he arrived he found
number of them the shore OF the lake, washing out
their soapketes Just the magician started to warn
them their danger the gas began TO rise The water
rather soapy, and when the vapor rose it formed
an enormous bubble that covered half of the lake.
The villagers greatly astonshed, and looked at
the bubble with their mouths open and their minds closed

to consider the matter In the rst place ne knew that
if the robber found that he had warned the people
he would be very angry and there telling what
he would do-there telling what he would do
when he wasn't angry. In the next place, the wind
might blow the gas away from the village when the
bubble burst At all events, the magician would have
time to think and he might devise plan for saving
the villagers without making the baron angry.

they must pay what he called their annual dues, they

as people are usually surprised when others refuse do

they ought to not-and he resolved to punish the
villagers.
At first he thought of descending them with his
band and burning their houses; but this would have
