"Mhter Captain" Raggedy Ann said to the little fat Captain who owned the pretty little white magi- cal boat. Don't you spect 1t would be fun If we sailed the magical boat just above the ground down the path through the deep woods? We are snre 10 have more adven- lures than if We sail the boat upon the sea"
 "Yes, I spAct 1t would be lots more fun'" the Captain agreed, For when We sail upon the sea, another water spout may come along and carry Us way up iu the air again and it would take just that much longer to get down 10 earth again.
 Yes" he said, We will sail the little white magical boat right along above tho ground through the decp, deep woods. Then we will not be captured by Pirates. It viii be lots more fun,"
 still" Raggedy Ann said. 1T Is q lot Of fun being captured hy Pi- rates f the Pirates are not real for sure Pirates"
 "Oh, yns'> the Captain agreed, Jus. pretend Pirates are lots of fun, hu' is we should said upon tn" sea and really and truly be cap tured by real for sure Pirates, then they mTht take our little magical boat away from us" And you know, Raggedy Ann and Kaggcdy Andy. f some real selfish person should discover that this Is magi- cal boat and that it has magical cupboard alwys filled with nice things to eat and a very fine magi- cal soda water fountain, they would be apt 10 make us prisoners and take our boat away from us"
 "Ha" Taggedy Andy cried. T'd like 70 see anyone try 10 do that"
 Aha. You would. would you.' 8 very gruff voice cried, Just you tcll me what you would do, Mister Raggedy Andy. Just tell me that will vou,"
 My Eoodnoss" RaEgedy Ann cried "I.'s q Hohgoblin,"
 You hot I ann" the Hobgoblin laughed, And I heard everything the Captain said. Just let me take a look at the magical cupboard and he magical ice cream soda water fountain, Just let me sec them and I'll mighty soon tell you whether shall capture the boat and make you all prisoners"
 We shall not show them 10 you when you talk so rudcly.' Rag gedv Ann said.
 Aha. Who says SOP" the Hob goblin cried as he caught Raggedy Ann and threw her over the side Of lie boat. He could do this easily for Raggody Ann vas made of cloth and stuffed with soft cotton. so she was not very heavy.
 And who else says so?" the Hob goblin erred as he looked at Rag gody Andy
 "I do" EagEedy Andy cried at af Fohgohlin, just as loud as the Hobrobnn had cried at him.
 Then o>rr you go.' the Hob goblin h0w''I And he caught hold of Ragg"dv Andy and wrestled him 'o he edg' of the boat and threw him oyer. This did not hurt Rag gedy Andy any more than it did Rargedy Ann. for Raggedy Andy nas made lust like Raggedy Ann. And lagGsdy Andy did not quit snulnE wen q smidgin, for his snte vas painted on.
 Now over you go too!" the Hob goblin cried as he rushed at inc utt'e fs, Captain. But the little fat Captain. vas too heavy for the Hobgonln and instead Of the Hob goblin throwing him over the side of the boat, the Captain threw inc HobgoblIn over and he "humped' the hard ground so hard he saw a great many zig gag stars
 There, Mister Hobgoblin." Rag Esdy Ann said, You sec now, You got tusi Nnst you deserved. Any one Rho tsAss 10 do another an Ua-
