made in the wink of an eye。  All you have to do is to knock the heels
together three times and command the shoes to carry you wherever you
wish to go。〃
    〃If that is so;〃 said the child joyfully; 〃I will ask them to
carry me back to Kansas at once。〃
    She threw her arms around the Lion's neck and kissed him;
patting his big head tenderly。  Then she kissed the Tin Woodman;
who was weeping in a way most dangerous to his joints。  But she
hugged the soft; stuffed body of the Scarecrow in her arms instead
of kissing his painted face; and found she was crying herself at
this sorrowful parting from her loving comrades。
    Glinda the Good stepped down from her ruby throne to give the
little girl a good…bye kiss; and Dorothy thanked her for all the
kindness she had shown to her friends and herself。
    Dorothy now took Toto up solemnly in her arms; and having said
one last good…bye she clapped the heels of her shoes together three
times; saying:
    〃Take me home to Aunt Em!〃
    Instantly she was whirling through the air; so swiftly that
all she could see or feel was the wind whistling past her ears。
    The Silver Shoes took but three steps; and then she stopped so
suddenly that she rolled over upon the grass several times before
she knew where she was。
    At length; however; she sat up and looked about her。
    〃Good gracious!〃 she cried。
    For she was sitting on the broad Kansas prairie; and just
before her was the new farmhouse Uncle Henry built after the
cyclone had carried away the old one。  Uncle Henry was milking the
cows in the barnyard; and Toto had jumped out of her arms and was
running toward the barn; barking furiously。
    Dorothy stood up and found she was in her stocking…feet。
For the Silver Shoes had fallen off in her flight through the air;
and were lost forever in the desert。



                         24。  Home Again

    Aunt Em had just come out of the house to water the cabbages
when she looked up and saw Dorothy running toward her。
    〃My darling child!〃 she cried; folding the little girl in her
arms and covering her face with kisses。  〃Where in the world did
you come from?〃
    〃From the Land of Oz;〃 said Dorothy gravely。  〃And here is
Toto; too。  And oh; Aunt Em!  I'm so glad to be at home again!〃
