45991Why do you wish to know?
45991Why, Quatty, you''re not going to back out now, are you?

45991Will you accept the assignment?
45991Wo n''t you stop and have lunch with me?
45991Yes, but the two canoes that followed the one they put him in?
45991Yes, but who are these people?
45991Yes, but why did they carry off Pork Chops?
45991Yes?
45991You are leaving here to- night in canoes for the coast?
45991You are the Boy Aviators we have all heard so much of?
45991You mean to strike right back into the wilderness?
45991You''re a rough fellow, my dear Scudder,another voice commented,"are you never in a softer mood?"
45991At the same moment Pork Chops''yells awakened the others and Ben Stubbs roared out with stentorian lungs:"Ahoy, there aboard the sloop-- What''s up?"
45991But were they going ahead?
45991By the way,"he broke off suddenly,"where is good old Ben Stubbs?"
45991Can you fellows keep a secret?"
45991Can you understand us?"
45991Different from old Camp Plateau in Nicaragua, eh?"
45991Do n''t you think we might head them off without destroying the aerodrome?
45991Do you know anything about it?"
45991Even if they could weather the flames, could they get through such smoke alive?
45991Good time plenty, how?"
45991Hark, what is that they are shouting upstairs?
45991Harry, where are you?"
45991Has the wave struck her?"
45991He resisted the temptation, however, and simply asked eagerly:"When do you start?"
45991How much shall you require do you suppose?"
45991How on earth can you--?"
45991I wonder?"
45991In this lonely untraveled spot who could it be?
45991It flashed across his mind that the cloth covering the planes might catch and then?
45991More for the sake of creating a diversion than anything else, Ben said:"Wonder what''s become of that floating pumpkin- seed the Squeegee?"
45991Only once, however, he irrelevantly remarked:"Keelhaul that Pork Chops, where is he?"
45991Or had the same mysterious forces that held the Boy Aviators captive wrecked their ship, too?
45991Pork Chops?"
45991Say,"he added suddenly,"could ye jes''wait a while till I paddle home an''say goo''-bye to my wife?"
45991The question was,--had a poisonous reptile bitten him?
45991They remained silently gazing before them for several minutes-- it was Ben who broke the silence:"What about the_ Carrier Dove_?
45991Time and again Harry, whose voice was growing momentarily fainter, had murmured to Frank:"You do n''t think he will fail us, Frank?"
45991Upsetting me overboard and trying to drown me, eh?
45991Was it the end?
45991Was the expedition well advised?
45991What are you so secretive for?"
45991What boat''s that?"
45991What can be the matter?"
45991What could be the matter?
45991What could have happened?
45991What do you want?"
45991What does it all mean do you suppose?"
45991What for?
45991What have you done with the colored man you took from the sloop last night?"
45991What is more delightful than a re- union of college girls after the summer vacation?
45991What would they find when they got there?
45991What would you say if we could tell you your errand here?"
45991When would the persons who had crackled the broken branch on the hillside recover their courage enough to make a further advance?
45991Where do you intend to build the ship?"
45991Where is this air- ship of yours and where are the canoes in which you brought it here?"
45991Who are you and what do you want around our camp?"
45991Who could it be?
45991Who says-- yes?"
45991Who the dickens are you?"
45991Why for do n''t you alls bring they''uns into camp?"
45991Why not manufacture it out and out in the country you have mentioned?"
45991Would it never come?
45991Would the aeroplane be there?
45991asked Harry, laughing,"do n''t you want to see the scenery?"
45991exclaimed Frank,"what on earth is that, Ben?"
45991exclaimed Scudder,"ai n''t you afraid of the United States government being suspicious?"
45991exclaimed his listener enthusiastically,"then you will accept the commission?"
45991questioned Frank,"are there any smooth spots clear of trees in the swamp?"
45991said the elder brother,"what was it?"
4356''Fraid of gett''n sun- struck?
4356''Riddlecum, riddlecum ree; What can the answer be?''
4356A fog bank? 4356 Ai n''t there any blamed way at all to stop her?"

4356Anything else?

4356Are n''t we already lost in this fog?
4356Are n''t you rather slow?

4356What''s being patched?
4356What''s goin''to happen to this tough ol''warrior, Trot?
4356What''s going to become of me, then?
4356What''s holding US up?
4356What''s the name of it?
4356What''s wrong, Button- Bright? 4356 What''s your real name?"
4356What, that little cabin?
4356When do we march?
4356When will that be?
4356When? 4356 When?"
4356Where are my soldiers? 4356 Where did you come from?"
4356Where did you get it?
4356Where do you s''pose the real Sky Island can be?
4356Where in the Sky did you come from, then, and where is your country located?
4356Where is it?
4356Where is this Arch?
4356Where shall we go?
4356Where''ll we go?
4356Where''ll we go?
4356Where''s Tiggle? 4356 Where''s the key to the Treasure Chamber?"
4356Where''s the umbrel?
4356Which IS the best?
4356Who are you to be patched to?
4356Who is Tourmaline?
4356Who knows?
4356Who will guard the Treasure Chamber?
4356Who will it be, then?
4356Who''s Cap''n Bill?
4356Why ca n''t I?
4356Why ca n''t we all go together?
4356Why could n''t there be an island in the sky that would be named Sky Island?
4356Why do n''t you make her the Queen?
4356Why do they call this an Island?
4356Why have you decreed death to these innocent strangers?
4356Why not wait until this shower is over?
4356Why not?
4356Why not?
4356Why not?
4356Why not?
4356Why not?
4356Why not?
4356Why of course?
4356Why, that was a magic night, was n''t it?
4356Why, what is there about my umbrella that seems insulting?
4356Why?
4356Why?
4356Why?
4356Why?
4356Why?
4356Will they throw us over the edge?
4356Will you take the parrot home with you, Trot?
4356Wo n''t let you change your mind, eh?
4356Wo n''t you come home with us?
4356Wo n''t you please get rid of them, too, your Majesty? 4356 Would you have your own father sliced so that you could rule in his place?"
4356Would you like to escape?
4356Yes,said the Queen,"but how does that apply to these strangers?"
4356You thought you could defy me, Earth Clod, did you? 4356 You''re-- you''re WHAT, Trot?"
4356Ai n''t this a pie?"
4356Ai n''t you hungry, child?"
4356Am I right, Cap''n Bill?"
4356Apples?
4356Are n''t you sorry for yourselves?"
4356Are you all contented, Pinkies?"
4356As they led the now- famous animal from the room, the Boolooroo shuddered and said,"How dare you people give orders in my palace?
4356At once, Button- Bright exclaimed,"Why, where has she gone?"
4356Boolooroo?"
4356But who are you, please?"
4356Ca n''t any of you remember two or three hundred years back when he first began to rule?"
4356Ca n''t they be discharged?"
4356Ca n''t you help us?"
4356Can they do anything useful?"
4356Can you keep a secret?"
4356Can you remember it?"
4356Coralie, do you consider''majesty''a proper word to use when addressing a Queen?"
4356Did n''t Button- Bright come safe all the way from Philydelfy?"
4356Did you drop down in that way, my lad?"
4356Did you ever taste a parsnip?"
4356Did you suppose a palace would be like one of our handsome residences?"
4356Do n''t you find it hard work to''member all of your name?"
4356Do n''t you know the Boolooroo of the Blues will have revenge?
4356Do n''t you know you will be punished for your impudence?
4356Do n''t you remember me?"
4356Do you know how to do that?"
4356Do you know this Law?"
4356Do you like boys?"
4356Do you s''pose, Trot, your mother would let me stay here all night?"
4356Do you think it''s a fairy country, Trot?"
4356Do you understand?"
4356Do you understand?"
4356Have n''t you any fairies here?"
4356Have you read this Law, Tourmaline?"
4356How dare you come into my garden and knock me on the head with that awful basket and then fall on my toes and cause me pain and suffering?
4356How dare you laugh when I''m talking?
4356How dare you sit in our presence?"
4356How dare you speak when I''m talking?"
4356How dare you, I say?
4356How dare you?"
4356How?"
4356I wonder why folks get cross when it rains?
4356I wonder why?"
4356I''m Queen o''the Pinkies an''Booloorooess o''the Blues, an''--""What''s that?"
4356Is it guarded?"
4356Is n''t it surprising how little people know of their Laws?
4356Is n''t that right, Cap''n?"
4356Is n''t there some house in the City they can all live in, Ghip?"
4356Is the Blue City captured?"
4356Is the Pink Country on the other side of it?"
4356Is your Blue Country very big?"
4356It gives us the blues, do n''t it, Trot?
4356Just then they were all startled by a swift flapping of wings, and a voice cried in shrill tones,"Where are you, Trot?
4356Or Cap''n Bill or Button- Bright?"
4356S''pose you jus''call yourself the Boss?
4356Say, what''s your name?"
4356See?"
4356Seems funny, do n''t it, Cap''n Bill?"
4356Shall I assist you to put one on?"
4356Sky Island, do n''t you understand?"
4356Tell me, sir, do you know of anyone who is my friend?"
4356That''s very big, is n''t it?"
4356The next morning Rosalie said to the little girl,"Will you make Tourmaline the Queen again when you go away?"
4356Then Tourmaline asked,"Why not, your Highness?"
4356Then he turned to Button- Bright and added,"Do n''t that prove Sky Island is a fairy country as I said?"
4356Then she asked,"Did n''t you like it, too, Cap''n Bill?"
4356Then she turned to Rosalie and asked,"How would you like to rule the Pinkies?"
4356Uncle Bob looked sharp at the thing an''said,''Button- Bright, how did your father happen to let you take that umbrella?''
4356Was n''t it jus''the-- the fascinatingest ride you ever took, Cap''n?"
4356What are apples?"
4356What are you doing here?"
4356What are you grinning at, Cap''n Bill?
4356What did I tell you, Tourmaline?"
4356What do you mean, prisoner, by daring to lay hands upon me?
4356What do you think of THAT law, Rosalie?"
4356What else could it be?
4356What''s YOUR name?"
4356What''s to be done, mate?"
4356When shall we start?"
4356Where did you get it?"
4356Where in all the Sky did they come from?"
4356Where is it located?"
4356Who has released Tiggle?
4356Who has stolen my golden Key?"
4356Who knows?"
4356Who''s this you''ve got, Trot?"
4356Why do n''t we stop?"
4356Why not assemble an army, march through the Fog Bank, fight and conquer the Boolooroo and recapture the Magic Umbrella?"
4356Wo n''t it be fine, Cap''n Bill?"
4356Wo n''t it be funny to see the old Moonface''s head on the little girl?
4356Wo n''t we all thump when we land with a bump?"
4356Would n''t it be horrible to be obliged to look upon such a sight?
4356Would n''t they open their eyes?"
39159''Fraid of gett''n''sun- struck?
39159''Riddlecum, riddlecum ree; What can the answer be?''
39159A fog bank? 39159 All alone, Trot?"
39159All right,said Trot;"where do you keep the menagerie?"
39159Am I to be patched, or what?
39159And let the Boolooroo capture us again?
39159And would you prefer to go home to remaining here?
39159Anything else?
39159Apples-- apples? 39159 Are all the servants of the old Boolooroo here?"
39159Are n''t we already lost in this fog?
39159Are n''t you rather slow?
39159Are they good to eat?
39159Are you a giant?
39159Are you addressing that word to me?
39159Are you condemned to be patched, too, little one?
39159Are you of royal birth?
39159Are you ready?
39159Are you?
39159Are you?
39159Are your kings elected, then?
39159As how?
39159Been to town?
39159But ca n''t you ever get-- get--_un_-patched again?
39159But how did they get to Sky Island?
39159But how did you get up there?
39159But how''ll we ever manage to get there?
39159But is n''t six hundred years an awful long time to live?
39159But what can you do here?
39159But what did you do with it?
39159But, can_ you_ do that circus act, Trot?
39159Ca n''t I do it? 39159 Ca n''t I take any of the treasure with me?"
39159Ca n''t we fight the frogs?
39159Ca n''t we shy your Tut-- Tor-- mar- line-- or whatever you call her-- in some way, an''deal with you direct?
39159Ca n''t you dry up?
39159Ca n''t you see me?
39159Ca n''t you see?
39159Ca n''t you tie us together, then?
39159Ca n''t you_ make_ the frogs let us through?
39159Can you tell us, Mister-- Mistress-- good Mr. Frog-- eh-- eh-- your Royal Highness-- if we''re on the right road to the Pink Country?
39159Catch a ride wi''some one?
39159Could n''t there be one?
39159Could n''t you let yourself down with one of the sheets from the bed?
39159Could you climb down a rope ladder, Cap''n?
39159Dear me,said Trot, throwing herself into a chair,"was n''t that a sudden change of fortune, though?
39159Did you see clearly?
39159Do n''t we look funny?
39159Do n''t you think so, Rosalie?
39159Do n''t you want me to go with you?
39159Do you know how to work that Magic Umbrella?
39159Do you like girls?
39159Do you think the Pinkies could fight the Blueskins?
39159Do you?
39159Does it ever rain here?
39159Does it, indeed?
39159Does n''t he wear but one?
39159Does n''t the sun ever shine?
39159Does the book say that?
39159Does the book tell how old he is?
39159Down where?
39159Folks do n''t learn things with their legs, do they?
39159Had we better go to the other side?
39159Hain''t walked the nine mile from the railroad station, hev ye?
39159Has anyone ever come out of that Arch alive?
39159Have n''t you any father?
39159Have n''t you any umbrellas?
39159Have one?
39159Have you nearly finished?
39159How about witches?
39159How came you in the Blue Country, from whence you say you escaped?
39159How could he patch_ us_?
39159How did it happen?
39159How did what happen?
39159How do you know?
39159How do you mix it?
39159How long have you lived?
39159How old is the Boolooroo?
39159How''ll we carry it?
39159How''s that?
39159How?
39159I know all that, Cap''n; but why was n''t it made for humans, too, if they can manage to fly in it? 39159 I''m the Queen of the Pinkies just now, am I not?"
39159I''ve hearn tell o''them sky keeridges; someth''n''like flyin''autymob''l''s, ai n''t they?
39159I-- I''m sure it has passed it already,exclaimed Trot"What''s wrong, Button- Bright?
39159If I get you out of the palace, can you hide yourself so that you wo n''t be found?
39159Is it an island?
39159Is it?
39159Is n''t it pretty?
39159Is n''t there a law to cover this case?
39159Is n''t this the Pacific Ocean?
39159Is n''t''pass''n''away''jus''the same as dyin''?
39159Is not a snubnose the highest mark of female beauty?
39159Is supper ready, mama?
39159Is the Monster Man whose legs are part wood a dangerous creature?
39159Is the Pink side of Sky Island bigger than the Blue side?
39159Is there a fence around the edge?
39159It that true?
39159It''s raining hard outside,announced Coralie, who sat near the door;"why not wait until this shower is over?"
39159Kill me? 39159 Know anyone around here?"
39159May I ask, ma''am,said Cap''n Bill, addressing the Witch,"why you have decided to murder of us in this cold- blooded way?"
39159Must we fight you?
39159Now, then, where''ll we go?
39159Now, you Blue Cap''n, who are you and your soldiers going to obey-- me or the snubnosed ones?
39159Oh, is this Sky Island, then?
39159Oh,said Button- Bright, alarmed at such dreadful butchery;"does n''t it hurt?"
39159Oh,said Button- Bright;"is there another half to Sky Island?"
39159Oh; a airship, eh?
39159Oh; is that your home?
39159Papa,exclaimed Turquoise, angrily,"can you not prevent this vile Earth Being from addressing us?
39159Ready?
39159Sail away? 39159 So now, Queen Trot, what''s next on the program?"
39159So the question is, what''s to be done?
39159So, this is how you waste your time, is it?
39159Sugar on''em?
39159Suppose it''s a friend?
39159Tell me, Captain, have you such a thing as a Brass Band in this City?
39159Tell me,said Ghip- Ghisizzle to Button- Bright,"did you not take the Royal Record Book from the Treasure Chamber of the Boolooroo?"
39159Tell me,said Rosalie;"if you had your Magic Umbrella, could you fly home again in safety?"
39159Tell me,she said gently to the boy,"why are you here, and why do these people of the sky wish to destroy you?"
39159The Earth? 39159 Then I''ve the right to make new laws, have n''t I?"
39159Then why do you not get the umbrella?
39159Then why have n''t you ever been there? 39159 There is n''t any water around it, is there?"
39159Through the Fog Bank?
39159We''re in no hurry to get back; are we, Button- Bright?
39159We''ve got an extra room with a nice bed in it, and we''d love to have you stay-- just as long as you want to-- wouldn''t we, Cap''n Bill?
39159We''ve had a good time; have n''t we, Trot?
39159Well, if he went to Araby, or was born there, he''d be an Arabian Knight, would n''t he? 39159 Well, well, Trot,"he said, coming up,"is this the way you hurry to town?"
39159What are they good for? 39159 What are those buildings over there?"
39159What are you doing here at this hour?
39159What arguments are advanced by the six Counselors who voted to allow them to remain here as guests?
39159What arguments have the others advanced?
39159What can be done?
39159What cons''quences?
39159What country did you come from?
39159What do they eat, then?
39159What does he say to his reverse of fortune?
39159What has to be did, mate?
39159What in the Sky do you mean by sitting on my feet? 39159 What is being patched?"
39159What is it, Coralie?
39159What is it, then?
39159What is_ your_ name, please?
39159What next, Queen Trot?
39159What pays you, then, for all your bother?
39159What shall I call her, then?
39159What shall we do, Rosalie: allow them to remain here as honored guests, or toss them over the bushes into the sky?
39159What shall we do?
39159What will you do with the monsters, papa?
39159What would happen if you did n''t march through the Arch?
39159What''s become of Tiggle?
39159What''s being patched?
39159What''s goin''to happen to this tough ol''warrior, Trot?
39159What''s going to become of me, then?
39159What''s holding_ us_ up?
39159What''s the name of it?
39159What''s your real name?
39159When do we march?
39159When will that be?
39159When? 39159 When?"
39159Where did you come from?
39159Where did you get it?
39159Where do you s''pose the real Sky Island can be?
39159Where in the Sky did you come from, then, and where is your country located?
39159Where is it?
39159Where is this Arch?
39159Where shall we go?
39159Where''ll we go?
39159Where''ll we go?
39159Where''s Tiggle? 39159 Where''s the key to the Treasure Chamber?"
39159Where''s the umbrel?
39159Which_ is_ the best?
39159Who are you to be patched with?
39159Who is Tourmaline?
39159Who knows?
39159Who will it be, then?
39159Who''s Cap''n Bill?
39159Why ca n''t I?
39159Why ca n''t we all go together?
39159Why could n''t there be an island in the sky that would be named Sky Island?
39159Why do n''t you make her the Queen?
39159Why do they call this an Island?
39159Why have you decreed death to these innocent strangers?
39159Why not?
39159Why not?
39159Why not?
39159Why not?
39159Why not?
39159Why not?
39159Why of course?
39159Why, what is there about my umbrella that seems insulting?
39159Why?
39159Why?
39159Why?
39159Why?
39159Why?
39159Will they throw us over the edge?
39159Will you take the parrot home with you, Trot?
39159Wo n''t let you change your mind, eh?
39159Wo n''t you come home with us?
39159Wo n''t you please get rid of them, too, your Majesty? 39159 Would you have your own father sliced, so that you could rule in his place?"
39159Would you like to escape?
39159Yes,said the Queen;"but how does that apply to these strangers?"
39159You''re-- you''re_ what_, Trot?
39159Ai n''t you hungry, child?"
39159Am I right, Cap''n Bill?"

39159Are you all contented, Pinkies?"

39159At once Button- Bright exclaimed:"Why, where has she gone?"
39159Boolooroo?"

39159Ca n''t they be discharged?"
39159Ca n''t you help us?"

39159Do you understand?"
39159Have n''t you any fairies here?"
39159Have n''t you?"
39159Have you conquered us, then?"
39159Have you read this Law, Tourmaline?"
39159How dare you come into my garden and knock me on the head with that awful basket and then fall on my toes and cause me pain and suffering?
39159How dare you laugh when I''m talking?
39159How dare you speak when I''m talking?"

39159Just then they were all startled by a swift flapping of wings, and a voice cried in shrill tones:"Where are you, Trot?
39159My governess would n''t let me go without one, and--"[ Illustration]"Oh,"said Trot;"do you have a governess?"
39159Or Cap''n Bill, or Button- Bright?"
39159S''pose you jus''call yourself the Boss?
39159Said the parrot:"I spy a peacock''s eye On every feather-- I wonder why?"
39159Say, what''s your name?"
39159See?"
39159Seems funny, do n''t it, Cap''n Bill?"
39159Shall I assist you to put one on?"
39159Sky Island; do n''t you understand?"
39159Tell me, sir, do you know of anyone who is my friend?"
39159That''s very big, is n''t it?"
39159The next morning Rosalie said to the little girl:"Will you make Tourmaline the Queen again, when you go away?"
39159Then Tourmaline asked:"Why not, your Highness?"

39159Who knows?"
39159Why do n''t we stop?"
39159Why not assemble an army, march through the Fog Bank, fight and conquer the Boolooroo and recapture the Magic Umbrella?"
39159Wo n''t it be fine, Cap''n Bill?"
39159Wo n''t it be funny to see the old Moonface''s head on the little girl?
39159Wo n''t we all thump when we land with a bump?"
39159Would n''t it be horrible to be obliged to look upon such a sight?
39159Would n''t they open their eyes?"
39159asked the woman,"or will you come with us peaceably?"
39159cried Trot, turning to stare at the boy with big, wide- open eyes;"were you ever in the Land of Oz?"
39159cried Trot, with big, eager eyes;"did you say_ Magic_ Umbrel, Button- Bright?"
39159exclaimed Trot;"why, that was a magic night, was n''t it?"
39159exclaimed the first;"what queer, dreadful- looking creatures are these?
39159exclaimed the surprised Jimfred;"who will guard the Treasure Chamber?"
39159gasped the sailorman;"ca n''t we land anywhere else?"
39159grunted the frog;"what in the Sky is_ this_ crowd?"
39159he cried;"where are my soldiers?
39159howled the Boolooroo;"what does this mean?"
39159muttered the parrot;"How can we jog To a frog in a fog?"
39159roared Cap''n Bill, now really frightened;"ai n''t there any blamed way at all to stop her?"
39159roared the Boolooroo,"dare you dictate to me?"
39159roared the monarch,"you thought you could defy me, Earth Clod, did you?
39159said Trot, triumphantly,"did n''t I tell you, Button- Bright, that Cap''n Bill knows ever''thing?"
39159said the bewildered sailor;"however did you get here, mate, in the Boolooroo''s own den?
39159that little cabin?"
39159who''s this you''ve got, Trot?"
