22 ' The Home Magazine. But I mus’n’t stop here all day, I must be off to sea. “ Are you going to sea on that chair ?” cried Marjorie. “Well, it’s as good as a table anyhow, as far as I can see,” laughed the Dodo. “ Yes, I’ve an appointment with an Ichthyosaurus at the Equator at noon, so I must be off. Good bye. Oh ! while I think of it, though, if you do come across him, you might give him my love, and tell him that I’m extinct, will you please ?, Ha—ha— he will be amused ! ” “Who do you mean ?” called out Dick, as the Dodo floated away on his chair. “The little Panjandrum,” was the reply ; “ you are pretty sure to meet him sooner or later.” “Oh, we’re going to see the Pan—jan—de— lum,” announced Fidge, capering about in glee. “ Hooray |” In the meantime the table had drifted on till the house was quite out of sight, and had reached the base of the cliffs, where the smugglers’ cave was. The children had been there ever so many times before, and knew of a little gap in the rocks where, if only their boat would drift near enough, they could land, and clamber up to the roadway again. The boat, however, passed the gap, and drifted straight underneath the cave, from whence came a confused babel of sounds. The children looked up, and a moment after- wards a crowd of the funniest little people imaginable came to the edge and peered over. “What rum little beggars !” cried Dick. “ Just look at their eyes |” “T do believe they are Brownies, or else Gnomes !” declared Marjorie, who had read a great many fairy stories. “Nonsense !” said Dick, with a superior air ; “there are no such things now-a-days.” “Who says so?” shrieked the little people from the cave. ‘Come up here and we'll soon show you.” “Oh, yes, do!” cried Marjorie, clapping her hands ; “I should love to see them.” “T don’t see how we are going to get up there,” said Dick, dubiously ; “ we haven’t got a ladder.” “We have one,” shouted the little people. “Shall we let it down ?” “Oh, yes, please,” clamoured Marjorie, and immediately afterwards a rope ladder was let down, and one or two of the little men hung over the ledge to steady it. “Come along,” cried Marjorie, leading the way, while Fidge followed next, repeating over and over, with a delighted chuckle, “We are going to see the Pan—jan—de—lum—We are going to see the Pan—jan—de—lum ! ” (To be continued.) ————+oo
