&'SUN''

SUN
We often think and
wonder if every person
on this universe to a
certain extent feels IN
disposed on days when
the strong, bright and
warm sun rays are not
touching our continent.
1t is indeed an inter-
esting fact that the
science has proved that
the sun rays are more
beneficial to the human
kiad than any other
natural blessing be-
slowed upon US. Again
scientists have tired to
substitute mechanism In
place Of the bright sun
rays at times when Sc
lection of objects are at
stake. IN order to give
the person as near pos
slble 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 viii answer this to
our kind reader. and be-
lieye that their visit to this

assertion.
As the sun rays govern

of Muscat govern its great
furniture business in this
great furniture business in
this part Of the country,
with its great values. ex-
clusiveness Of the stock,
beauty Of furniture and
convenience in making the

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
be the best in Northern
Indiana.
As a demonstration of
this fact, we are present
ing to the people Of this
vicinity a number Of bar

ular stock Of August Fur
niture Clearance. These
are only few Of the
many bargains which you
can not miss if furniture is

Our great clearance sale
in progress has attracted
buyers from miles away,
their purchases brought
new buyers, still we be-
lieve that we have not con.
