he had only two hands and four eyes,
he could only rub the eyes of one head
az time, and il took some minutes
tor him to be reallv awake.
Zatilo had hidden behind rock
which was really the Ogres chair, and
when he was quite awake he got up
and walked to the place behind which
poor Zatilo was hidden and sat down.
For few seconds Zatilo wished he
had changed his wish, but he had not
long 20 think about 1t, for the Ogre, In
voice like thunder, called, Come
hither, slaves" and from everywhere
came the little dwarfs, their eyes big
and staring at the terrible Ogre.
Zatilo saw that they were sll trem-
bling as they stood before the Ogre
and he knew that, come what might,
he could not keep silent; he must show
himself and give up the gold button to
the Ogre.
Have you found my gold button,
slaves" Numbered the terrible voice
OF the Ogre.
The time had come ard Zatilo
stepped from behind the stone chair,
but his foot slipped on the damp floor
Of the cave, and away rolled the pre-
cious gold button.
Before Zatilo could rescue il the Ogre
had cried out, A mortal! Bind him,
slaves. II he escapes into the kettle
YOU all &c"
The little dwarfs seemed now to be
rs well able TO hold him as they were
TO carry him, and Zatilo found himself
held upon the floor Of the cave, while
the Ogre picked up the button.
He dropped 1t as soon as he touched
il, for instead OF the bright gold but
ton il had been when Zatilo dropped it,
II was now a dull and black and the
Ogre stood looking at il with fright
ened look on both of his big faces.
He seemed TO have forgotten Zatilc
and the dwarfs. First he would holc
one big hand over the place on nj:
coat where the button had been anc
then he would reach for the dull but
ton but never did he touch it.
Just then q queer cackllng laugh
was heard and Zatilo saw, standing il
the doorway of the cave, a tall, THU
creature with long gray hair which
streamed over the shoulders of a lonj
black cape which she wore.
] ilpct was ilOchcd Niltli el'
spoke she showed only one long tootl
in the front OF her mouth.
The dwarfs were so thick over ant
around Zatilo that the witch did no
see him.
Come" she said, pointing with he
cane at the Ogre, and munbling some
thing in chanting tone she waved he
cane and the Ogre was changed into
big black bat.
But now he had no hand with which
TO cover the place of the lost button
for though his shape was changed, tn
coat had grown smaller and il covered
the body of the big bat
The sharp eyes of the witch saw tha
there were only six gold buttons.
Wretch" she screamed, you have
lost one of the seven charms, but YOU
shall not lose the other six"
The witch few toward him TO pull
the buttons from the coat, and in the
struggle all six Of the gold buttons were
dropped on the floor of the cave.
