ed, was farmer and the pioneer cotton

lima. Mr.. Turner graduated at Trinity
College in 1876 and in 1879 the degree Of
A. NJ. was conferred on him by his alma
mater. After graduatcnNhe read law

Asheville. He was a painstaking, STU
dious, able and conscientious attorney
and his practice grew steadily. In 1885
he formed partnership with the late
Judge Robert f. Armfield, and in 1889,
when Judge Armfield went on the bench,
Mr.. Turner formed a partnership with
Mr.. Chas. II. Armfield. 1t is one of the
strongest legal firms in Piedmont North

mittee He has been a leader in his dis
trict and in 1898 received a large vote
for the nomination for Congress. In

gree the courage of his convictions, and
did not hesitate in the Legislature 10
fight all extravaganza and all proposed
legislation carrying special privilege. His

effective speaker and will be a power on
the stump in the campaign
In personal life Mr.. Turner has a clean
record He has no weak place. He is
straightforward, manly, upright, true in
all the relations of life. In Iredell coun-
ty no man has lived who enjoyed the
confidence of the people to a fuller extent
than Mr.. Turner He is straightforward
and direct the sort of man who will grow
in popular confidence. He has been twice
married. His first wife was Miss Lanier
of Alabama. He was married few years
ago, a second time to Miss Julia II. Me
Call, of Statesville. He is a trustee Of
the State Normal and Industrial College
at Greensboro. Mr.. Turner is Method

cessful lawyer. but a man of fine bust

brother is secretary and treasurer, and is
connected with most of the important en-
terprises of his county.

receptacle in which food is received and
the laboratory in which it is prepared to

1t prepares brain nourishment in one

muscle nourishment in another. When
the stomach is out of order" these
various forms of nourishment are only

nerve, muscle, or brain, as the case
may be, is only partly fed, and the result
is pain, which is Natures protest and
