<h2>JUPITER AND THE TORTOISE</h2>
<br/>
<p>Jupiter was about to marry a wife, and determined to celebrate
the event by inviting all the animals to a banquet. They all came
except the Tortoise, who did not put in an appearance, much to
Jupiter's surprise. So when he next saw the Tortoise he asked him
why he had not been at the banquet. "I don't care for going out,"
said the Tortoise; "there's no place like home." Jupiter was so
much annoyed by this reply that he decreed that from that time
forth the Tortoise should carry his house upon his back, and never
be able to get away from home even if he wished to.</p>
