Where
are
your
reindeer
?
"
asked
Polychrome
.
"
I
left
them
at
home
,
for
it
is
too
warm
for
them
in
this
sunny
country
,
"
he
answered
.
"
They
're
used
to
winter
weather
when
they
travel
.
"
In
a
flash
he
was
gone
,
and
the
Ryls
and
Knooks
with
him
;
but
they
could
all
hear
the
golden
hoofs
of
the
Saw-Horse
ringing
on
the
marble
pavement
outside
,
as
he
pranced
away
with
his
noble
rider
.

Presently
the
band
played
again
,
and
the
High
Chamberlain
announced
:
"
Her
Gracious
Majesty
,
the
Queen
of
Merryland
.
"
They
looked
earnestly
to
discover
whom
this
queen
might
be
,
and
saw
advancing
up
the
room
an
exquisite
wax
doll
dressed
in
dainty
fluffs
and
ruffles
and
spangled
gown
.
She
was
almost
as
big
as
Button-Bright
,
and
her
cheeks
and
mouth
and
eyebrow
were
prettily
painted
in
delicate
colors
.
Her
blue
eyes
stared
a
bit
,
being
of
glass
,
yet
the
expression
upon
her
Majesty
's
face
was
quite
pleasant
and
decidedly
winning
.
With
the
Queen
of
Merryland
were
four
wooden
soldiers
,
two
stalking
ahead
of
her
with
much
dignity
and
two
following
behind
,
like
a
royal
bodyguard
.
The
soldiers
were
painted
in
bright
colors
and
carried
wooden
guns
,
and
after
them
came
a
fat
little
man
who
attracted
attention
at
once
,
although
he
seemed
modest
and
retiring
.
For
he
was
made
of
candy
,
and
carried
a
tin
sugar-sifter
filled
with
powdered
sugar
,
with
which
he
dusted
himself
frequently
so
that
he
would
n't
stick
to
things
if
he
touched
them
.
The
High
Chamberlain
had
called
him
"
The
Candy
Man
of
Merryland
,
"
and
Dorothy
saw
that
one
of
his
thumbs
looked
as
if
it
had
been
bitten
off
by
some
one
who
was
fond
of
candy
and
could
n't
resist
the
temptation
.

The
wax
doll
Queen
spoke
prettily
to
Dorothy
and
the
others
,
and
sent
her
loving
greetings
to
Ozma
before
she
retired
to
the
rooms
prepared
for
her
.
She
had
brought
a
birthday
present
wrapped
in
tissue
paper
and
tied
with
pink
and
blue
ribbons
,
and
one
of
the
wooden
soldiers
placed
it
on
the
table
with
the
other
gifts
.
But
the
Candy
Man
did
not
go
to
his
room
,
because
he
said
he
preferred
to
stay
and
talk
with
the
Scarecrow
and
Tik-tok
and
the
Wizard
and
Tin
Woodman
,
whom
he
declared
the
queerest
people
he
had
ever
met
.
Button-Bright
was
glad
the
Candy
Man
stayed
in
the
Throne
Room
,
because
the
boy
thought
this
guest
smelled
deliciously
of
wintergreen
and
maple
sugar
.
The
Braided
Man
now
entered
the
room
,
having
been
fortunate
enough
to
receive
an
invitation
to
the
Princess
Ozma
's
party
.
He
was
from
a
cave
halfway
between
the
Invisible
Valley
and
the
Country
of
the
Gargoyles
,
and
his
hair
and
whiskers
were
so
long
that
he
was
obliged
to
plait
them
into
many
braids
that
hung
to
his
feet
,
and
every
braid
was
tied
with
a
bow
of
colored
ribbon
.
"
I
've
brought
Princess
Ozma
a
box
of
flutters
for
her
birthday
,
"
said
the
Braided
Man
,
earnestly
;
"
and
I
hope
she
will
like
them
,
for
they
are
the
finest
quality
I
have
ever
made
.
"
