words of the General.

The hoy followed after them, car

Tip laughed.
Perhaps you are right" said he.
But the Guardian of the Gate is
considered faithful Guardian, and
the Kings Army will not let the City
be conquered without a struggle"
The Army is old and feeble" re-
piled General Jinjur, scornfully. His
strength has all been used to grow
whiskers, and his wife has such a
temper that she has already pulled
more than half of them out by the
roots. When the Wonderful Wizard
reigned the Soldier with the Green
Whiskers was a very good Royal
Army, for people feared the Wizard.
But no one is afraid of the Scare

After this conversation they pro-
ceeded some distance in silence. and
before long reached a large clearing
in the forest where fully four hum
dred young women were assembled.
These were laughing and talking to-
gether as gaily as if they had gath
cred for. picnic instead of a war of
conquest.
They were divided into four COM
panies, and Tip noticed that all were
dressed in costumes similar to that
worn by General Jinjur. The only
real difference was that while those
girls from the Munchkin country had
the blue strip in front of their skirts.
