MIR. ECKLEs' IDEA.
What the Election Outcome Means
to Him.

CHICAGO, Nov. A. Comptroller
Eckles, who was at the National
Democratic headquarters, said:
/ think the result is just what might have
been expected Whenever the question has
been put to the voters, '*Will the American
people pay their debts?" 1t has always been
decided that they would. We pay our debts.
The nation pays its debts. The Importance
of the result in the business world is that it
means the rehabilament Of American credit
abroad. That means that investors are will
ing to put their idle capital in cur enter
prises. This election means the complete
Reorganization of the Democratic party. For
a long period of time the Democracy has
been the haven refuge for every element of
discomfort in the country. 1t is to be reor-
ganized and now it Is as good as any other
time. The Democratic politicians will learn
from this election that it is better to have
the business interests with them than to have
the disturbing elements.

claims. There will be no necessity of
our having the rumored national con-
vention, and none Is likely to take place.

Cool Your Wrists.

Very few people know the Importance Of
keeping the wrists cool in warm weather.
Actors and actresses say that If one of their
number faints cold water is poured on their
wrists, and the result is always an immedatee
recovery. Athletes engaged in the perform
ance OF feats of endurance know that in win
ter the wrists must be kept warm and I'M
summer cool. but the general public still
continue toiwearstight gloves and heavy cuffs
in dog days and then wonder why 1t is hot.
Taking off shess gloves Especially in churchl
often makes sqliite,~ap amazing difference fu
temperature. Tight sleeves above all things
make 1.-the searery hot In oppressive weather.
