Individual Libraries 
One of the many advantages of 
SloW^Vernicke Bookcases is the creating 
of individual libraries in any room, en¬ 
abling each to have his or her books 
where they are instantly accessible. 
SU>fc«tV«rnickc sections can easily be 
rearranged to meet the requirements 
of different rooms in the same home, 
or in the event of moving to a new 
house or apartment — a feature entirely 
lacking in the solid or built-in bookcase. 
Elastic Bookcases 
are fully described in our new 1911 catalogue, 
which contains many practical suggestions for 
clever decorative effects, and tells in detail the 
many points of Globe-Wernicke superiority.

“The World’s Best Books” is a valuable guide * 
in selecting a library, and contains authentic 
lists prepared by prominent literary authorities. 
“Those who love books will find this 
volume of genuine service, and its 
selections made on a broad basis of 
wisdom .”—Buffalo News.
