The spirit of the times demands

is no reason why it should continue to

trying to work on your nerves and
forcing yourself that wastes your

SCIENTIST SAYS
Ant HAS GREAT
SMELLING POWER

Stockholm, April 9.-The ant has
been greatly overrated in the opinion
of Rich Eye, a Swedish naturalist.
Solomon set the fashion with his IA
nous admonition to the sluggard, and
the ant has been living under false
pretenses ever since. For, as a mat
ter of fact, she is a hopeless chuckle-
head, and to consider her ways is no
way to become wise.
Mark Twain arrived at this conclu-
sion many years ago, and science now
joins hands with him in the person of
Mr.. Eye, who publishes the results of
a series of experiments with ants. He
disposes first of the insects suppos-
ed uncanny power to recognize other
tenants of its own anthill. Mr.. Eye
washed ants in ether, dipped them in
liquid gained by pressing a number
of ants from another hill, and put
them back among their own friends,
who promptly fell upon them and
elected them. He took ants fifty
times larger than the inhabitants of a
certain anthill, washed them and
treated them in a liquid pressed from
the ants of that hill and then placed
them in it. The Lilliputian insects
did not recognize the giants as invad-
ers. Mr.. Eye concludes, therefore,
that the supposed remarkably sharp
recognitional powers of the insects
are simply a matter of scent and in
,herited reflexes.
Ants removed from familiar paths
blunder blindly along, with no sense
of distance or direction, until they
| strike a trail made by themselves or
other ants. In many tests made by
Mr.. Eye the insects disclosed mo
more intelligence than is to be found
in the digestive processes of human
beings" In other words, he found
nearly all their acts are but move
ments by reflexes, unconnected with

How to Make a Real
Wrinkle Remover

In these days of cleverly advertised
"beautifiers'' and "rejuvenators' it is
hard for woman to believe she can
make simple home remedy for the
removal of wrinkles which will do her
much more good than the average
made preparation. There's nothing in
the world so effective for erasing or
preventing wrinkles, age marks bag
giness of cheel>s md chin as simple
and harmless solution made by dis
solving an ounce of pure powdered
saxolite in half pint of witch hazel.
These ingredients of course can be had
at any drug store. Use the mixture
daily for while as refreshing wash
lotion. The quick and satisfactory re-
suits will surprise you. Even the first
application produces very marked i'm
| provement. The wrinkles are less in
evidence and the face has Arm,

you will look considerably less than

Germans Gain Ground in the Neigh. borhood of Neuve Chappelle

LONDON, April 1O.--ln an attack on the British lines between Labassee, and Armentieres last night the Ger mans gained ground in the neighbor- hood of Neuve Chappelle, Farquissart and Cadonerie farm, General Haig announced in his report today.
 Fighting was severe in Somme sec tions along the western front, and all sides suffered many casualties. The weather is clearing up. the warm sun drying up the seas of mud and water between the lines. and providing bet ter transportation facilities for the al lied lorries and motor trucks.
 The engagement has settled down to a steady grind, the allied armies dsputing every foot of ground gain ed by the invaders with great feroc- ity, and by counter attacks pushing the enemy back at many points. Gen eral Haig is still confident that the worst of the fighting is over and that from now on the allies will assume the aggressive.

GOOD WAGES
 BEING PAID
up ti,c Past Year from .I cents to One Dollar and Living

SEATTLE, April 10. Financially speaking. is the labOrer as we'll off today as he was a year ago? Records taken by the city show that he is mak- ing far more money, but that living also has gone up by leaps and bounds. Even the cOmmonest class of labor is getting from 75c to $1 per day more than it was a year ago. Yardmen and other laborers at the mills are get ting from $3.25 to $3.50 per days, and are now working hours instead of 10, as formerly. Common labor re- ceives 40 cents per hour and in some cases 45 cents, as compared with 30 a year ago. Shipyard workers get from $3.5O to $7.7O per day. the lat ter being paid to caulkers. Carpenters were paid 62 1-2 cents per hour last year; they are now asking 75 cents.
 Farm labor is getting the highest wage in the history of the Northwest. A year ago their wage ran from $40 to $50 per month. Now the range is from $50 to $6O. Mixers were paid $50; now they get $75. Cooks receiv- ed from $50 to $6O last year; and are now in demand at from $75 to $9O per month.
 Domestics are also sharing in the new prosperity. In 1917 their wages were $4 to $5 per week. They now get from $5 to SC.
 The demand for labor is now bal anced by the supply. but within a few weeks the demand may exceed the supply. when the next draft Is called. Many men are leaving for the North and a demand will also be made for laborers to fill their places.
 But living has kept pace with and in most instances eclipsed the amount of wages paid. Staples have raised from 40 to 130 per cent. Flour is greatly higher and meats have gone up tremendously. Potatoes are cheap CT, but nearly all other vegetables are higher. Butter Is much higher and lard and meat products have taken Q sharp advance in the past week.
