      INTRODUCTION.

      ..................

      THE BIBLE IS A UNIVERSAL book. It is applicable to all classes and all countries. The Hindoo of India and the highly civilized Caucasian of Europe and America alike find in its teachings a responsive cord. It is equally interesting to the children and adults.

      Where else can be found such fascinating stories as in the pages of this old Book? Baby Moses in the bulrushes. The innocents pathetic figure of the little Ishmael, left to die by himself in the wilderness, but lifting up his little voice to God and not in vain! Joseph, the loving son and true brother, and David, the shepherd lad who became a great King—what endless charm these stories of real life, when the world was young, hold for the mind and heart of both young and old! A young collegian, writing of a charming, restless boy of nine years, temporarily under his charge, says, I am reading the story of Joseph to H—— out of the Bible. It is wonderful to see the little fellow with his eyes fixed upon me, never speaking,—scarcely moving for as long a time as I choose to read!

      What entrancing pictures of real life we find in the Bible: Old and young pressing close to the Christ as he sits by the wayside, to win a word of love and blessing from his gracious lips. People of all ages waving their palm-branches and singing Hosannas to the King whom they understood and loved, as
