But I am safe and live at home.

Little Turk or Japanee,
O! Don't you wish that you were me?

ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON




GREAT AND LITTLE BEAR


Callisto was a beautiful woman whom the god Jupiter admired.

The goddess Juno was very angry because Jupiter was kind to Callisto.
She decided to be revenged.

"I will take away her beauty, so that no one shall admire her," said
Juno.

Night and day she thought and planned, until she found a way to punish
Callisto.

One morning as the fair and gentle Callisto was gathering wild flowers
in a field, she was suddenly changed into a bear. Then she was driven
into a forest near by.

"You shall live in this forest forever! A cave under the rocks shall be
your home!" exclaimed Juno.
