ter much hand shaking, Dorothy
kissed Ozma once more, and then handed her the Nome King's magic belt,
saying:
"Now, dear Princess, when I wave my handkerchief, please wish me with
Uncle Henry. I'm aw'fly sorry to leave you--and the Scarecrow--and the
Tin Woodman--and the Cowardly Lion--and Tiktok--and--and everybody--but
I do want my Uncle Henry! So good-bye, all of you."
Then the little girl stood on one of the big emeralds which decorated
the courtyard, and after looking once again at each of her friends,
waved her handkerchief.
"No," said Dorothy, "I wasn't drowned at all. And I've come to nurse
you and take care of you, Uncle Henry, and you must promise to get well
as soon as poss'ble."
Uncle Henry smiled and cuddled his little niece close in his lap.
"I'm better already, my darling," said he.
