History
After the Scarecrow was deposed as King of Oz, he and his companions set out to find Glinda's palace aboard the flying Gump. They got lost during the night and the Gump was damaged, but the Wogglebug used one of the Wishing Pills and set them on their way again. (The Marvelous Land of Oz)
The Wogglebug again used a wishing pill on a later adventure to the United States. After the Tin Woodman recklessly used magic to give a little boy the car that he wanted, not realizing how dangerous cars can be, the Wogglebug used a Wishing Pill to wish the boy back home. (Queer Visitors from the Marvelous Land of Oz)
The Wizard of Oz once used the Wishing Pills to wish himself, Ozma, and their group to the kingdom of Morrow. (The Lost King of Oz)
