THE CENTURY PLAN OF LIBRARY BUILDING MEANS
SAVING TIME, MONEY, AND LIBRARY SPACE
WHY SPEND all your spare money on the complete works of ONE author, and cumber your library shelves with many books which you will never read, when, for the same money or less, you can get the chief works of a number of authors by taking advantage of this plan ?
The Only Plan for the Practical Man or Woman
Exercise the same intelligent discrimination in planning your library as you would in planning the other details of your home
An Honest Effort along carefully thought-out lines to provide the reading public with books strictly worthwhile
