The collection is composed of handsome silky Mohair Zibolinos, most of which are in black, though two groups arc navy blue; and, notwithstanding their desirability and staple we have secured them to sell at half their regular price, and es. They present one of the best opportunities of the. season for the selection of holiday dress patterns.

Here are the prices of differ-out groups: In most of the groups there are no duplicate pieces; and the collector has an opportunity now to secure specimens that, will not be procurable later on. While there are many very exipusile and very elaborate pieces in the collection, the strong feature is the unusual varioty of art. pieces at, popular prices; and there is probably no other collection in New York City that equals this one in that respect. We never had so large and fine a collection of astilenas and Carrara Marble pieces as we now show. The French Bronzes present a most artistic collection.

A Y. M. C. A. SYMPOSIUM.

David A. Boody, J. E. Swanstrom, McCarroll and D. W.

McWilliams Speak. The Business Men's Symposium yesterday afternoon at the Majestic Theater attracted by far the largest attendance of the season of the men's mass meetings held there un der the auspices of the Central Branch of the Young Men's Christian Association. The in itial conductor of the service was Edward P. Lyon, president of the Brooklyn Young Men's Christian Association. The musical numbers were furnished by tbo Beasley sis ters of California three violinists, one pianist; tho association orchestra, under Profes sor Mygrant's cornet and Preceptor Alexander McGuirk with W.

A. Palmer at the piano Even tho breakdown of the moving picture apparatus, which barely succeeded in an nounclng its intended "Strange Story of the Star," did not dampen the interest and enthusiasm when Secretary C. W. Dietrich, of Central Branch, remarked: "There Is no accounting for the eccentricities of electricity" and made the statement that there would be another "experiment" on the same line next Sunday, together with singing by the Meistcr Glee Singers, twenty strong, all male vocalists in the various churches of Greater New York, men who are accustomed to large remuneration but wbo have volun tocred their services for this one occasion. Dr.

Cortland Myers, of the Baptist Temple will make the nddress. There was also an nounceU the organization of a glee club at the association building on Tuesday even ings, under the conductorship of Precentor McGuirk, free to all men w'ith voices. Then, after offering prayer, Mr. Lyon introduced as chairman of the meeting J. Edward Swan strom, former president of the borough, who said: "There has been no movement In recent times which has attracted moro widespread attention than these Sunday afternoon meet ings for men which are being held under the ausuices of tho Young Men Christian Asso ciatlon.

In my judgment they fill a need of a cosmopolitan community like Brooklyn which cannot, for good reasons, be met by churches. Their primary object is to make men better, to make men realize that the moral life Is tho only life worth living and that our progress In any direction is depend ent In large measure upon our moral growth Tho subject for tho afternoon Is: "Can young man be a successful business man and a Christian?" I know of no one better qualified to address us than the one I am about to introduce, David A. Boody." Mr. Boody said: "Mr. Chairman and young men of Brooklyn and among that number I Include every one who takes an active interest in the affairs of life.

Every man I bellevo is young whose face Is still turned toward the "We live in a Christian civilization, and do wo know of any hotter civilization? Do we know any that has douo more for tho Individual, that has been more careful of his life, of his property, his privileges? Do wo know one that has established a higher standard of manhood? Do we know any that has established such Institutions, educational and charitable, as tbo Christian civilization has established? Eighteen million of children are In our schools in this country to-day. Has any civilization a record like this? Charitable institutions aro the result only of the teachings of Christianity. As a nation we have a constitution and we know that no national law can be made that conflicts with it. As a state we have a state constitution, and all laws must conform to Its requirements. We have a city charter and we must be governed by it and can make no laws In conflict with It.

The point I want to make this afternoon Is that there Is one book that Is the constitution of our civilization, and It Is the Bible, and I make this further point in connection with it: We are loyal to our country, we are loyal to our constitutions and to our charters. Can we do less than be loyal to that book which is the constitution of our civilization and upon whose principles and with regard to whose teachings governments have been constructed, lawn enacted and our relations to each other established? And this brings me back to the text. "Can a young man he a business man and a Chrls-tian?" Should It not read: "Can a young man be a business man without being a Christian?" What is It to be a Christian? I'. Is to recognize the teachings of Christ. Is there one word' In all the teachings contained In the Blhle that Is not for human happiness, human comfort, for human progress? It has been my lot, fortunate or unfortunate, to have a business experience In one of the busiest and most absorbing places In this land and that Is Wall street, and 1 can testify here this afternoon that 'here is no place In tho land where honor, truth and fidelity as they are taught by our Honk of Christianity, Is better maintained.

I have never found a condition where a man or a woman did not receive respect who acted In accordance with the constitu-' 'Ion of our civilization, the Bible. Mr. Swanstrom then Introduced William airoll. former president of Urn American Manufacturers' Association. Mr.

MfCar-roll said: "The business man ought to be a Christian because from the Christian standpoint he gels Iho right view of life and of his rela tions to his business, his employers, bis cu- 'omors. We speak of the ministry as a railing. I don't know how you gel Into business. Somo men are fortunate enough to get Inlo Just the line they planned early In youth, hut. I think most of us just got Into It by chance rather, ns we view It, the determination and direction of the providence of flod, so that our calling Is one just as much as the minister's.

And what a noble Inspiration this thought gives us! Many, perhaps, have not looked at It that way-regarded business only as a way to make a livelihood or a fortune. But the Christian In business has higher motives, the highest in nro. Mr. Swanstrom then said that when Dr. Theodore L.

Cuyler was presented to King Oscar of Sweden, who entertained him. tho King said: "You need no Introduction to mo; I have some of your books In my Then applause and hankerchlef waving greet ed the doctor as he said: "I thank you for this greeting. This after noon 1 have been suffering severely, especial ly with lameness In my left knee and I may he require! to be seated." Nevertheless at times during his eloquent and masterly ad dress In his enthusiasm he rose to his feet and stood for some time. "Young men, I wish I could shake hands with every one of you this afternoon; but as I cannot do that, I would rather shake hearts with you and pray God's blessing upon you all. This Is a business men's meeting you have heard business men.

The Question submitted to me Is: 'Does It pay to he Tremendous question that. Does It pay to he a Christian? What Is a Christian? Well he Is a Christ's man, who enthrones Christ In the heart follows the real Jesus Christ In the life. Does It pay? Well, murk you this: In order to be a Christian It costs something, young men. Very cheap things are worthless; everything worth having costs. To be a Christian first costs weeding out personal sins out of your heart.

Then there Is some steep climbing up ths Mill of Difficulty. Costs rouruge someilmes what you have to do goes against the grain to stand Arm and fast for God and truth and right. Yes; It costs all that. I). W.

"On tha other hand, let me tell you If It coBts so much, what gain you by It? In the first place you gain tho pardon of Bins.

In the next you gain the esteem and respect of all whose respect Is worth having; power to withstand and resist temptation and overcome sin. If you have given your heart and life to Christ you have got the power to be more useful. Three ciphers or three hundred amount to nothing, but put a one before thorn and they stand for a great deal: so If tho factor Christ bo added to your nothingness, your strength Is multiplied. You havo only one llfo to live and when you rone to be old you will still have the pardon of your sins, have had somo usefulness In life.

Williams of New York City The Masquerader Any one or two reviews of a book or a play are apt to be misleading, but when all the reviews agree, their united judgment is so entirely right that one has no appeal.

Put on your lmt or your bonnet, and run to 1 ho nearest store lor "Tlio Masquerader." It's far and uwny the most interesting novel of the year, and it will be a long time before we get Its equal.

It is legitimately interesting, too. The plot thrills, and the people grip. You got wrapped up in them and their affairs as if they were human. Toward the close of tho book, when the complications thicken und disaster seems Inevitable, your heart heats faster. It's a story that will keep you out of lied if you take it up for casual nightcap chapter.

Westbury Thronged With Sightseers All Day Yesterday Burned District to Be Rebuilt. Westbury, I December 5 The ruins of the six Lulldings which were burned Satur day evening were viewed by a lurge crowd of people, who cumo from various sections, yesterday. The ruins smoldered ull duy and as the crowd gazed at the blackened area of about fivo hundred feet, many expressions of regret were heard.

Tho Bolton Drug Co. sny this is strong point in fitvor of their vitluiible cod liver oil preparation, Vinol. It is not patent inodiclue, and everything it contains is plainly printed on the bottle.

Vinol contains in a highly concentrated form nil of the medicinal elements of cod liver oil, uctually taken from fresh cods' livers, but without a drop of oil or grease to nauseate and upset the stomach. This is the reason that Vinol accomplishes such wonderful results in curing chronic coughs, colds, bronchial and lung troubles, and there is nothing known to medicine that will so quickly build up the run down, overworked, tired mid debilitated, or give strength nnd- renewed vitality to the aged, as Vinol. Mrs. Martha l'raser, of Portland, writes: "I was nil run down from overwork and had chronic, cough for years.
