The Globe ernicIe Elias
tic" Rook Case is a system of
Units. It is always complete
but never fnisLed-small enough
for ten or large enough for ten
thousand books--neyer too large
OF too small, but always just
right. 1t can be enlarged or re-
duced, moved and rearranged
to suit an almost endless variety
of books, spaces, tastes and con-
ditions.
Each Unit has dust-proof
glass door, edged with felt. In
operation it swings upwards and
retires into space over the
books where it is out of the way.
These doors act on roller bear
ings, and contain our celebrated
non-binding and noiseless cush-
ion closing features, making
door simple and easy to operate.
II Is the only one that does not
weaken the Unit or encroach up
on the book space. A strong and
most desirable point of advan-
tage to be considered by pur-
cbasers is the ease with which
the door can be removed and re-
placed for the purpose Of clean
ing, without requiring delicate
and intricate mechanical read
iustments or necessitating the
use Of tools.

Growth of Sugar Abroad.

The figures above quoted include that
portion which enters into the worlds sta
tistical record Of sugar production. and
does not include the large quantities OF
cane sugar produced in India and China
exclusively for home consumption, and IN
considerable number OF the tropical
countries does not include that portion OF
the sugar consumed at home. Even if
these figures OF cane sugar production for
home consumption we're obtainable the
production from bects would still show
much more rapid growth during the last
half century than that from cane
This. apparently. is due 10 two great
causes. First. the elimination OF slavery

Beet Industry Grows

Che especially striking fact shown by
the statistics presented in this study is
the rapidly Increasing proportion OF the
worlds enlarged sugar consumption
which is supplied by beets- According
TO the figures presented by this study
beets. which supplied in 1870 less than ,
per cent Of the worlds sugar. in 1900
supplied s. per cent Of the greatly in
creased consumption; while cane. which
then supplied 95 per cent OF the worlds
sugar consumption. now supplies but
80 per cent. Stated IN quantities. il may
be said that the worlds cane sugar sup

1880 Per Cent as Compared With 100
Per Cent fox the Latter.

The Worlds Sugar Production and Cen
sumption. 150O-1900.~ is the title OF a
monograph Just issued by the Treasury
Bureau of Statistics. Il discusses the
sugar production and consumption Of the
world during the past century. and espe-
aially during the last hall century. in
which the burden Of sugar production has
been transferred from cane 10 the sugar
beet. and in which the world has so
largely increased its consumption Of su-
gar.
The worlds sugar production 1as
grown from $4,000 tons in 1870 10
$4,000 tons in 1909. During the same
period the worlds population has grown.
according TO the best est mates. from
$50, geo 600 20 about I,5O0. 600 900. Thus
sugar production has increased about $50
Der cent. while population was increasing
about so per cent. Coming nearer home.
and considering the United States eloue.
it is found that the consumption Of su-
gar. which IN 1880 was only twenty-five
pounds per capita. was in 1901 over six
ty-eight poundE per capita.
