The sailor scowled a little at hearing this, but Trotlaughed, and said: The law of the ocean is nt our law, cause we live onland. Just now you are living in the ocean, declared Anko,and as long as you live here, you must obey my commands. What are your commands? inquired the child. Ah; thats the point I was coming to, returned the King,with his comical smile. The ocean is a beautiful place, andwe who belong here love it dearly. In many ways its a nicerplace for a home than the earth, for we have no sunstrokes,mosquitoes, earthquakes or candy shops to bother us. But Iam convinced that the ocean is no proper dwelling place forearth people, and I believe the mermaids did an unwise thingwhen they invited you to visit them. I dont, protested the girl.

In my case, your Majesty, made it one leg, suggestedCapn Bill. Ah, yes; I remember. One leg, and a wooden stick tokeep it company. I issue this order, my friends, not becauseI am not fond of your society, but to keep you from gettinginto more trouble in a country where all is strange and un-natural to you. Am I right, or do you think I am wrong 1 You re quite correct,</i><br><br><b>Note About Images</b><br></p>
