=Surpasses in Value and Completeness All Former Editions of this Standard Work.=
It contains fine Colored Illustrations.
It contains a Map of the Bible Lands.
It contains a Steel Plate Engraving after Rembrandt (engraved expressly for the Frontispiece).

=THE HOME EDITION of the Story of the Bible.=
Gives admirers of the book an opportunity to procure it in a handsomer form, either for presentation to friends or for use at home.
The COVER of this edition bears an appropriate and ornamental design in gold and color. The INSIDE is no less attractive than the outside. On opening it, the ILLUMINATED PRESENTATION PAGE first meets the eye. This is followed by the beautiful STEEL PLATE ENGRAVING OF JACOB'S DREAM, as a Frontispiece. A double page COLORED MAP comes next, showing countries and places mentioned in the Bible. SIX RICHLY COLORED PLATES, with 300 ENGRAVINGS, illustrating the principal scenes and events narrated in the book, are distributed throughout its pages, from beginning to end.

=The New Testament in simple form for Children. Written in Language easy to understand. Printed in large, plain type, and filled with Pictures.=
=100th THOUSAND NOW SELLING.=
The Author of the "STORY OF THE BIBLE," after publishing that work, found that a smaller and still simpler book on the New Testament alone, was needed.
He therefore prepared the "STORY OF THE GOSPEL," which contains the Life of Christ written in a style easily understood by children, and illustrated by a large number of excellent wood engravings.
=From Rev. M. A. GOODELL, Northwood, Iowa.=
I am much pleased with the "STORY OF THE GOSPEL." The illustrations are excellent. The Story is told in beautiful language, and in such a way that very difficult points are made plain even to children. It is also a good commentary on the Word for older persons, and should be in every family.
I lent my copy of the "STORY OF THE GOSPEL" to the teacher of the Primary Department in our public school, who used it instead of the Bible in opening school, and after a few days said she could not do without it.

=FIRST STEPS FOR LITTLE FEET IN GOSPEL PATHS.=
=328 Pages. 16mo. With Colored Frontispiece and 140 Illustrations.=
By CHARLES FOSTER, Author of the "Story of the Bible."
There still remained one class of learners whose wants were not supplied by either the STORY OF THE BIBLE or the STORY OF THE GOSPEL. These were the little ones in the Nursery, the Infant School, and the Kinder-Garten. For their instruction the author has prepared a third book, FIRST STEPS FOR LITTLE FEET IN GOSPEL PATHS. This book is arranged on a different plan from either of the preceding. Instead of being divided into Chapters, it consists of separate passages or Lessons, most of them quite short, and each one complete in itself. Each Lesson is followed by Questions so simple that the little hearers, if attentive when the passage is read, may readily answer them.
