OXFORD BIBLES.

AFTER a careful and thorough examination we are convinced that the “Oxford” S. S. Teacher’s Bible is the best for the use of ministers, teachers, and Bible students. We cannot get from Canada the style of Bible that we have sold heretofore; this, with the fact that the Teacher’s Bible is in every way superior to the plain, has led us to adopt the “Oxford” and offer it to our customers. These Bibles are celebrated for Clearness of Type, Strength, Excellence, and Finish of Binding, Compactness (for though containing a mass of matter not generally bound with the Bible, they have been kept within the limits of a handy volume), Fullness and Comprehensiveness of Notes and Tables, and Prices which place them within the reach of all.
They contain, in addition to the authorized Text, with References,
