House of Muscats AD ITORIAL tkSUN" We often think and wonder if every person on this universe to a certain extent feels indisposed on days when the strong, bright and warm sun rays are not touching our continent. It is indeed an interesting fact that the science has proved that the sun rays are more beneficial to the human kind than any other natural blessing bestowed upon us. Again scientists have tried to substitute mechanism in place of the bright sun rays at times when selection of objects are at stake, in order to give the person as ne2.r possible natural effect. This has failed, and we for one do believe that science will fail at least in this one respect, whatever their future success may be in other undertakings. WHAT HAS THAT TO DO WITH A FURNITURE ANNOUNCEMENT AND FURNITURE BUSINESS? We will answer thij to our kind reader, and believe that their visit to this furniture establish m e n t will convince them of our assertion. As the sun rays govern the day, so does the House of Muscat govern its great furniture business in this great furniture business in this part of the country, with its great value:, exclusiveness of the stock, beauty of furniture 'and convenience in making th? purchase. As the sun rays have their task to illuminate things beautiful, so has our announcement a task to announce great values to people who care to take advantage of our prices, considered and proven to
