The Flight of the Midgets Cap'n Bill and Trot rode very comfortably in the sunbonnet.

The motion was quite steady, for they weighed so little that the Ork flew without effort.

Yet they were both somewhat nervous about their future fate and could not help wishing they were safe on land and their natural size again.
"You're terr'ble small, Trot," remarked Cap'n Bill, looking at his companion.
"Same to you, Cap'n," she said with a laugh; "but as long as we have the purple berries we needn't worry about our size." "In a circus," mused the old man, "we'd be curiosities.

But in a sunbonnet--high up in the air--sailin' over a big, unknown ocean--they ain't no word in any booktionary to describe us." "Why, we're midgets, that's all," said the little girl.

The Ork flew silently for a long time.
