Globe Cabinet Safe

Eliminates Bulk and Weight and Marks a New Era
of Protection, Convenience and Business Security

No matter what his line of business may be, every man can now have a Steel Safe partitioned and arranged to suit his own specific needs.

It is no longer necessary to purchase bulk and weight in order to secure protection against loss by fire or theft. It isn't even necessary to consult with the maker regarding the interior arrangements, pay extra for such subdivisions, or bother in the least about securing more shelf space later on.

Any man can buy a Globe Steel Cabinet Safe without any interior fittings whatever; or if he prefers, he can buy it already equipped with Globe-Wernicke Steel Filing Cabinet Units, Shelves and Partitions.

Our catalog, illustrating many model interiors made up with Filing Cabinet Sections for all lines, any of which are worthy of the investigation of any business man whether he wishes to purchase or not, mailed free on request.

It is advisable to consult a Globe Wernicke agency on office kind, because of their knowledge and experience in such matters.

Because the finish adds to or subtracts from the values already paid for, vastly more than its own cost.

A fine Car, Yacht, Piano, Stairway, Floor, poorly varnished, has its beauty ruined --- elegantly varnished, has its beauty doubled and preserved.

Murphy Varnishes, regardless of the cost in making them, are so made that they satisfy the most exacting demands.

The delight of it!

is that they cost the User a little less by the job-vastly less by the year than ordinary varnishes.

"Play Ball"

Get in the game with
your old jimmy pipe.

Just as umps walks over to the plate and
tells 'em "play ball," you jam your
jimmy pipe brimful of "P. A." and fire-
up before the first one goes across.
Then you're ready for what's next!

Rooting for the winner or condoling with
the short end fellows-you take it straight
-there's nothing that gets 'em over
like "P. A."

Why, say, you can smoke till the last
man's out smoke it red-hot while the
boys are kicking dust around bases, or
kind of cool-like, when things look dismal
-and never will you get anything like
a near-nip on that tongue of yours!
"P. A." isn't one of the fire-brands!

ACH Bell Telephone is the center of

EACH

the system. This system may be any size or any shape, with lines radiating from any subscriber's telephone, like the spokes of a wheel, to the limits of the subscriber's requirements, whether ten miles or a thousand.

Somewhere on the edge of this subscriber's radius is another who requires a radius of lines stretching still further away. On the edge of this second subscriber's radius is still a third, whose requirements mean a further extension of the lines, and so on.

This endless chain of systems may be illustrated by a series of overlapping circles. Each additional subscriber becomes a new

center with an extended radius of communication, reaching other subscribers.

However small the radius, the step-by-step extension from neighbor to neighbor must continue across the continent without a stopping place, until the requirements of every individual have been met.

There can be no limit to the extension of telephone lines until the whole country is covered. There can be no limit to the system of which each Bell telephone is the center, up to the greatest distance that talk can be carried.

Because these are the fundamental needs of a nation of telephone users, the Bell System must provide universal service.
