Prof. Lord seized the opportunity for a
lecture on gum masticators
The Rist of the talk was that a man

Morgan Made Million
Profit on POrce1ains

PARIS, April 2o.--There is good au-
thority for saying J. Pierpont Morgan's
profit on the sale of his porcelain COL
lection was 81 100000.
This Is tribute to the judgment of
the late William NJ. lafran, through
whose advice the collection was mainly
formed
The sale OF all the Morgan collec-
tions, which is thought to be certain,
meets with mixed feelings among deal
ers. While 1t will paralyze their bust
ress for a time, confidence is felt that
in the end II will prove that the pur-
chase of antique objects of art is as
sound an investment as stocks.
