BEN SMITH'S PATENT,

AND ALL ABOUT IT.

During an experience of over 25 years with Librarians, Book-buyers and Booksellers in many parts of the world, I have repeatedly had brought to my notice the want of a bookshelf fitting which would admit of its instantly, without trouble, being raised or lowered to any desired height, and in introducing the present simple device I shall be earning the thanks of every librarian and book-lover who adopts them. Their charm is their simplicity, no tool being necessary-merely the pressure of thumb and finger.

These supports can be fitted to existing shelving by the addition of halfinch grooved ends and division, screwed to the existing uprights; these ends can be fixed by anyone, being supplied by me ready to put up, with supports to suit any width shelves from six inches upwards.

Thousands are now in use in public and private libraries, booksellers' and stationers' shops.

Mr. G. GREGORY, one of the leading booksellers in the West of England, having recently had his shop fronts re-fitted with them, says:

"These shelf supports are a marvel of simplicity, and ought to be known by every bookseller and librarian throughout the kingdom.

They enable the window-dresser to adjust his shelves to suit a row of any size books. There are thus no gaps between the tops of one row of books and the shelf next above; this often enables the assistant to get in another whole row of books."

The illustrations describe more fully the idea, but on receipt of a card I shall be pleased to send a sample support and any further particulars desired. Estimates furnished for library and shop fittings of any description.

and there you are ready for the shelves.

To re-adjust the shelves the slightest pressure upwards to the supports instantly releases

them.
