"
Pardon
me
,
Most
Royal
Ozma
,
"
replied
one
of
her
generals
;
"
but
I
find
that
I
and
my
brother
officers
all
suffer
from
heart
disease
,
and
the
slightest
excitement
might
kill
us
.
If
we
fight
we
may
get
excited
.
Would
it
not
be
well
for
us
to
avoid
this
grave
danger
?
"
"
Soldiers
should
not
have
heart
disease
,
"
said
Ozma
.
"
Private
soldiers
are
not
,
I
believe
,
afflicted
that
way
,
"
declared
another
general
,
twirling
his
moustache
thoughtfully
.
"
If
your
Royal
Highness
desires
,
we
will
order
our
private
to
attack
yonder
warriors
.

"
Do
so
,
"
replied
Ozma
.
"
For
-
ward
-
-
march
!
"
cried
all
the
generals
,
with
one
voice
.
"
For
-
ward
-
-
march
!
"
yelled
the
colonels
.
"
For
-
ward
-
-
march
!
"
shouted
the
majors
.
"
For
-
ward
-
-
march
!
"
commanded
the
captains
.
And
at
that
the
private
leveled
his
spear
and
dashed
furiously
upon
the
foe
.
The
captain
of
the
Nomes
was
so
surprised
by
this
sudden
onslaught
that
he
forgot
to
command
his
warriors
to
fight
,
so
that
the
ten
men
in
the
first
row
,
who
stood
in
front
of
the
private
s
spear
,
fell
over
like
so
many
toy
soldiers
.
The
spear
could
not
go
through
their
steel
armor
,
however
,
so
the
warriors
scrambled
to
their
feet
again
,
and
by
that
time
the
private
had
knocked
over
another
row
of
them
.

Then
the
captain
brought
down
his
battle
-
axe
with
such
a
strong
blow
that
the
private
s
spear
was
shattered
and
knocked
from
his
grasp
,
and
he
was
helpless
to
fight
any
longer
.
The
Nome
King
had
left
his
throne
and
pressed
through
his
warriors
to
the
front
ranks
,
so
he
could
see
what
was
going
on
;
but
as
he
faced
Ozma
and
her
friends
the
Scarecrow
,
as
if
aroused
to
action
by
the
valor
of
the
private
,
drew
one
of
Billina
s
eggs
from
his
right
jacket
pocket
and
hurled
it
straight
at
the
little
monarch
s
head
.
It
struck
him
squarely
in
his
left
eye
,
where
the
egg
smashed
and
scattered
,
as
eggs
will
,
and
covered
his
face
and
hair
and
beard
with
its
sticky
contents
.
