Some Sweet Stories of Old. By the Rev. C. J.

Ridgeway, M.A. (Griffith, Farran, and Co.)—This is a second series of the author's "Boys of Bible Story." The subjects are, from the Old Testa- ment, Isaac, Esau and Jacob, Joseph's Dream, Benjamin, Samuel, and David. (We may remark that Jacob and Esau were not " boys " when the incidents narrated occurred, and that Benjamin was a grown man with children when the migration of Jacob's family into Egypt took place.) From the New Testament we have "The Flight into Egypt" and "Christ in the Temple."
