Behind
that is wall paper, and some bare drywall.

At the end, the wooden ends are bevelled, and match up to another
bevelled,
varnished wood.

My bottle of gorilla glue had locked up. I went to Home Depot, and
bought a
tube of Seal All, which I can use for other stuff after the baseboard.
I'm
not all sure this will stick.

What works better? Liquid nails? Silicone caulk? Or should I bought fresh
bottle of gorilla glue?

i would use liquid nails. silicone would take a good 24 hours to fully
cure, and isn't that good of an adhesive anyway.

gorilla glue is best used for wood-wood gluing.

Gorilla glue has its place, but requires some serious clamping. I
wouldn't think of using it on this problem.
