Fifth:
INHERITORS

"Here is a fairy tale founded upon the wonders of

electricity and written for children of this generation.

Yet when my readers shall have become men and

women my story may not seem to their children like

a fairy tale at all.

    "Perhaps one, perhaps two—perhaps several of the

Demon's devices will be, by that time, in popular use.

    "Who knows?"

—L. Frank Baum, The Master Key
