At the First Presbyterian church tomorrow Rev. George F. Pentecost, D. D., will speak at the morning ser vice. Dr. Pentecost served the church for a period of a year and half and not ony won the love and appre- citation of the church, but many friends in the city. He conducted a series of Sunday afternoon meetings at Polrs Theatre one winter while here and the crowded hall spoke most truly of his popularity. Dr. Pente- costs life is given, not to one church as pastor, but many He has preach ed in many churches all over this country sometimes as pastor, and of ten as Evangelist conducting meetings similar to those carried on during the winter at Fremont Temple, Boston. His influence is felt in whatever work he performs. It has been nearly two years since Dr. Pentecost has been with his Bridgeport friends and the hearty welcome in many hearts will make him feel the power of his service here. Dr. Pentecost was born an Englishman but his work and in terests have so long been in this country that we may claim him as one of our ablest American Preach CTS.

ARTIFICIAL CAMPHOR.

There is in operation in New York the product. of which is intended to compete in the market with the nat ural substance. It is maintained that it does not differ, except in the man ner of it's origin. from that extracted from the camphor trees of Formosa.
 Artificial camphor is made from essential oils derived from turpen- tine. Chemically the only difference between turpentine and camphor is the possession by each molecule of the latter of one atom of oxygen which is lacking in the former. By chemical process the needed oxygen is supplied. Three-fourths of the entire supply of camphor is used in the arts, and one-fourth in medicine.

He was in weighing against a man with whom he had done business and with whom he was dissatisfied. The mans name was Samuel Creggan. or something like 1t He's man who trades on the Sam uel.' Stevenson declared He receives you with Samuel's smile on his face with the gesture of Samuel he invites you into chair. with Samuel's eyes cast down in self depreciation he tells you how well satisfied his clients have always been with his dealings. but every now and again you catch a glimpse of the Creggan peeping out like white ferret Creggan's the real man; Samuers only superficial

HER SCHEME WENT AWRY.

At dinner last winter one of New York's prominent bankers was diiat- ing on the danger of deceit. By way of illustration he told of a society wo- man who saw in a jewellers window beautiful collar of pearls, which she wanted very much. Upon in- quiry she learned the price was six thousand dollars. Thereupon she gave her check for three thousand dollars, saying she would send her husband to see the pearls and if he could be persuaded to buy them he was to be told the price was only three thousand dollars.
 The jeweler, being familiar with that sort of game, readily agreed. The husband called during the day to see the pearls, and that evening told his wife he had bought them. since they were evidently such bargain. His wife was more than delighted, and immediately asked if he had brought home the collar. to which he replied:
 ''Why no, my dear; l had 1t sent to my mother. You know it is her birth day tomorrow"
