For several minutes they all stood staring at the black spot on the canvas of the Magic Picture, wondering what it could mean. "P'r'aps we'd better ask the little Pink Bear about Ozma," suggested Trot.  
"Pshaw!" said Button-Bright. "HE don't know anything."
 
"He never makes a mistake," declared the King.
 
"He did once, surely," said Betsy. "But perhaps he wouldn't make a mistake again."

They all looked around the room, but of course did not see her. "In what part of the room is she?" was the Wizard's next question.
 
"In Button-Bright's pocket," said the little Pink Bear.
 
This reply amazed them all, you may be sure, and although the three girls smiled and Scraps yelled "Hoo-ray!" in derision, the Wizard turned to consider the matter with grave thoughtfulness. "In which one of Button-Bright's poc............
