A certain Sultan had favorite Jew, whom be
made his Prime Minister. Naturally this Jew
got lots Of enemies and consequently they persua-
ded, and at last tried to convince the Sultan, that
the Jew, was betrayer of the country.
The Sultan being aware Of the no aesty and sa-
gacity Of the jew, (the Jew was called Nathan,
the wise.) couldn't help to condemn him, but be
had it in his power to give him chance to save
bis life.
The sultan therefore sent for the Jew, and told
him of what he was accused, and that he was
obliged to put him to death, but as he believed
that the Jew was wrongly accused, he gave him
chance to save his life by answering him the aues
tioD, which religion was the true. one-the Chris
tian, the Jewish or the Mahom edan religion; and
told the Jew the satisfactory answer would save
his life.,
Nathan asked for three grace days, which we're
granted him. 3
When be appeared assio % the "a day to give
bic decision to the question: he begged to give his
answer by an illustration. and II this ilIustraton
would not satisfy, he'd give up bis lie willingly
i Thislas request was granted 10 him, also; and
Nathan then told the following anecdote: So
goes bis tale. -

They are the best childrcn's books ever published.
They wisely avoid the introduction or discussion of
religious topics, yet are such as christian parents nav
unhesitatingly place in their ciiillrcn's hands. the
price is marveloue'y low, Twenty five cents a number
makes it about six pages of print and two excellent
"ngra wings for each cent of the money.
The engraving alone without a liEe of letter ress,
would be cheap at The price. One good thing these
Story Books will certainly accomplish; henceford, in
ierior authorship and used-up worn out illustrations
can not be paImed off on children. They have samples
here of what is best for them, and they are shrewd
enough not to put up with any thing of lower quality.
