and may not allow you to destroy her.
Keep to the west, where the sun sets.
and you cannot fail to find her."
Now the Wicked Witch of the West
had but one eye. yet that was as pow
erful as telescope, and could see
everywhere. So, as she sat in the
door of her castle, she happened to
look around and saw Dorothy lying
asleep, with her friends all about her
They were long distance of, but the
Wicked Witch was angry to find them
in her country; SO she blew upon a
silver whistle that hung around her
neck.
At once there came running to her
from all directions a pack of great
wolves. They had long legs and fierce
eyes and sharp teeth.
Go to those people," said the
Witch. 'and tear them to pieces"
Are you not going to make them
your slaves?" asked the wolf leader
NO" she answered, "one is of tin,
and one o. straw one Is a girl and
another a Lion. None of them is fit
to work. SO you may tear them into
small pieces"
VERY WELL" said the wolf, and he
dashed away at full speed. followed by
the others.
1t was lucky the Scarecrow and the
Woodman were wide awake and heard
the wolves coming.
This is my fight" said the Wood
man; 80 get behind me and l will
meet them as they come"
He seized his ak, which he had
made very sharp, and as the leader of
the wolves came on .ne Tin Woodman

CHAPTER xl.-Continued.


Or gave a low growl at this, but
said, gruff1y:
"If you indeed desire heart, you
must earn it."
How" asked the Woodman.
Help Dorothy to kill the Wicked
Witch of the West" replied the beast.
when the Witch is dead, come to me,
and I will then give you the biggest
and kindest and most loving heart in
all the Land of o."
So the Tin Woodman was forced to
return sorrowfully to his friends and
tell them of the terrible beast he had
seen. They all wondered greatly at
the many forms the great Wizard
could take upon himself and the Lion
said
IF he is beast when l go to see
him, shall roar my loudest, and so
frighten him that he will grant all
ask. And if he is the lovely lady,
shall pretend to spring upon her, and
SO compel her to do my bidding. And
If he is the great head he will be at
my mercy; for l will roll this head
all about the room until lie promises
to give us what we desire. So be of
good cheer, my friends, for all will yet
be we'll"
The Lion at once passed through
the door. and, glancing around, saw,
to his surprise, that before the throne
was a ball of fire so fierce and glow
ing he could scarcely bear to gaze
upon it. His first thought was that
Or had by accident caught on fire and
was burning up; but. when he tried to
go nearer, the heat was so intense that
it singed his whiskers, and he crept
back tremblingly to a spot nearer the
door.
Then low, quiet voice came from
the ball Of fire, and these were the
words it spoke:
81 am Or. the Great and Terrible.
Who are you, and why do you seek
me?" And the Lion answered:
81 am a Cowardly Lion, afraid Of
everything. I come to you to, beg that
you give me courage, SO that in reality
1 may become the king of beasts, as
men call me-"
"Why should 1 give you courage ?"
demanded Or.
Because of all Wizards you are
the greatest, and alone have power
to grant my request" answered the
Lion.
The ball of fire burned fiercely for a
time, and the voice said:
Bring me proof that the Wicked
Witch is dead, and that moment 1
will give you courage. But so long as
the Witch lives you must remain a
coward"
The Lion was angry at this speech,
but could say nothing in reply and
while he stood silently gazing at the
ball OF fire it became so furiously hot
that he turned tail and rushed from
the room. He was glad to find his
friends waiting for him. and told them
of his terrible interview with the
Wizard.
what shall we do now?" asked Dor.
othy, sadly.

He went, leaving me to reflect anew
on how much easier II is to tangie
things that to untangle them.
! I had scarcely reached the office be-
fore he came. He looked bewildered
and uncertain, and, sitting down on
the other side of the table in my priv
ate room. stretched out his arms
across 1t and leaned over to me. She
says she loves him. he said
"Of course she says that" ex-
claimed
"Then you don't believe it,"
"Do your"
Il don't know what to believe. I
didn't think 1t possible before, and
I can't conceive 1t now; but she

but decided that much OF what had
deemed convincing had been based
merely on my own conclusions and
not upon anything she had actually
said or conveyed.
She says she'll marry him whether
give myself up or not" he went on;
that it won't make a particle Of diff
ference except that 1t will stir UP an
unnecessary fuss. Ankony won't do
anything, of course, when she's going
to marry him. and she says she is go
