It is hard to write about Lumber tn nn.l the Robeson association, and Allen are the officers of the associat ion. There are57 churches in the body, one or two of them being across the border in South Carolina, and the remainder in the county of Robeson Lumberton has a population of be tween five and six thousand with as fine streets as those of Oxford. It has mercantile establishments of i.ninense proportions and the volume kern within the bounds of reason. 0f business is large and growing.

If you have been disappointed with lack of results from pills and tonics said to contain iron you can now un derstand that the iron was aot pre sented in a form that could be absorbed by the stomach into the system. And therefore could not possibly bring you benefit.

He will also tell you that stomach troubles are relieved by tak ing a spoonful in a glais of water three times a day. And for acute conditions like "sour stomach" etc., a single dose will in most cases bring relief. This natural formof iron seems to neutralize the excess acid in the stomach as nothingelse in all medicine. Stomach disorders of long standing where the patient is subject to dis tress after eating, gulping, headaches, dizziness, etc., yield positively to steady treatment with Acid Iron Mineral. And don't forget that the general system is strengthened and invigor ated owing to the iron content of this great medicine."

Stephen Mcfntyre at the Robeson association. That was one time he let the law go and stuck to the gospel. His face was wreathed in a. wide smile all through the session. 4 Rev. John R. Miller, formerly of the Liberty association, is prospering greatly at Fairmont, one of the steady growth of the other denomi naions in Lumberton. The Methodists have completed z fine building, and tne iresDytetians have etrectd one of the most beautiful and - tastefu meeting houses in the State. The Presbyerians are numerically weak in Lumberton, but they have considerable wealth and are a generous and loyal people. xne association was the best we have ever attended. The discussions would have done credit to the Baptist State Convention. Three addresses, one by Rev. J. S. Snyder of Fayette- ville, one by Dr. Walter N. Johnson and one bv Rev. Q. C. Davis were well worth the trip to Lumberton to hear. Pastor Davis is enlisted in the 75 liviiion campaign, hi3 church at Albe mare nav;ng given him permjssui to fill as many engagements as pos sible during the campaign. His plea is one of marvelous power. We heard the opinion expressed by some who heard George Truett that this speech by Mr. Davis is in the same class. It is a very powerful and un answerable argument in favor of the mighty movement that is stirring Southern Baptists as nothing else has ever stirred them. The Orphanage hour was very ten der and sweet. The report, which was one of the best we have ever heard, was read by Rev. C. V. Brooks of Red Springs.
