The Tinder Box (9) [The Tinder Box]

The Tinder Box (9)

" Whatever is the meaning of this ? " exclaimed the Soldier.

" This is a wonderful kind of tinder box, if I can get whatever I want like this. Get me money ! " he cried to the dog, and hey, presto ! he was off and back again, holding a great purse full of money in his mouth.

Now the Soldier knew wgat an excellent tinder box this was.

If he rubbed once, the dog that sat on the chest of copper appeared; if he rubbed twice, there came the dog that watched over the silver chest; and if he rubbed three times, the one that guarded the gold appeared.

Now, the Soldier went down again to his beautiful rooms, and appeared once more in splendid clothes.

His friends immediately recognised him again, as though he were the person they liked best in the world.
