the Old and New Testaments, In the words of the Authorized Version, embellished with
NEARLY 300 FINE ENGRAVINGS AND MAPS THIS is a most beautiful book for children of all ages, and
a very
VALUABLE HELP TO PRIMARY TEACHERS
Of Sabbath-School Classes. The text is in Great Primer type, and is printed on heavy,
calendared paper, making a large and elegant volume,
royal octavo size, of 838 pages. While the Bible is a book for all, there are some parts of it which are
as milk for babes, and some as strong meat for men. The publishers of
the "Child's Bible" have endeavored to put in consecutive form such
portions of the Holy Scripture as seem best adapted to the wants and
capacities of childhood, in the words of the Bible text. And where the
sense requires it, words and clauses have been inserted in brackets,
sometimes as summaries of what has been omitted, and sometimes as
connecting links. Believing that the youth should know at what cost the English Bible
was won and preserved for them, there has been prefixed to this edition
an account of the Sacred Scriptures from the time of their origin to the
present day, prominence being given to the struggle of the English
Reformers for its translation into the English language. The numerous engravings were executed by the best artists of this
country and of England and France. They will assist in interesting
children in the text, and will aid in the instruction of those too young to
read. Price, in Muslin, marbled edge, $5.00 | In Morocco, gilt edge,.......$8.00 Address,
