 e. How can I rid my house of ants?
 A. The surest way to keep 8 house free fro mants is not to leave food exposed on shelves or in open places where they can reach 1t. Ants go where they find food, and if the food supplies are kept in ant-proof metal containers, or in refrigerators, and if all crumbs that are scattered by children or others are swept up promptly, the ant nuisance will be slight. Cake, bread, sugar, jelly. meat and like substances are espe- cially attractive to ants.

HAYE A CUPl oF COFFEE

Cafiene, the slkaIoid or active principle in coffee, stimulates the cerebrum, the spinal cord, the heart and the kidneys. Cariene is ex- tracted not only from coffee but also from tea, mate CParaguay tea, wild teal cola, .guarana Brazilian cocoa). Formerly the a1kaloid or active principle of coffee was called caf- fiene and that of tea theine. Chem ists now regard caffiene and theine as identical.
 Ounce for ounce, tea leaves con- tain far more of the aIkaloid than coffee berries do. But cup of well made coffee contains rather more than cup of well made tea does, due to the relatively larger propor- ton of coffee to the cupful of bev- craze.
 The stimulating effects of bever- ages containing caffiene are all alike in character but differ in degree. That of coffee is strongest, tea next. mate IS. American, Argentine, Para quay or wild teal next and various popular fountain beverages contain ing one or another form of coca sweetened and carbonated weakest. The effect of glass of one of the last mentioned beverages is equiv alent to that of a cup of weak tea or very weak coffee sweetneed with suar.
 Caffiene in any of these beverages is a rapidly acting stimulant to the brain (cerebrunl) and spinal cord. It increase repidity of thought, and according to psychological tests the accuracy of thought. It increases capability to concentrate the mind over 8 longer time. This applies only to the moderate use of the beverage. As soon as meditation is exceeded the individual becomes incapable of thinking accurately or rapidly or of doing any prolonged mental work. Instead there is cerebral excitation, irritability, restlessness, insomnia.
 H. c. Wood, Jr., noted pl1armaco- logist, showed that caffeine increases capacity for muscular work II per cent and augments the amount of work that the individual can do before fatigue occurs. Woods studies indicated that this stimulation is not followed by any deleterious effect unless the dose of caffiene used is extremely large.
 The effect of caffeine upon the circulation is less powerful than we formerly believed. It tends to in- crease both the force of the heart beat and the pulse rate, and some times, not always, slightly increases blood pressure. More precise scien- tific methods of investigation have taught physicians that caffeine in- creases rapidity of blood flow thru the coronary arteries--the arteries that supply blood to the heart mus cle itself, the arteries involved in angina pectoris, coronary occlusion and cardiac thrombosis. The regular moderate use of coffee is therefore blessing to patients with such heart disease, as a general rule.

IF WILLKIE HAD
COME TO MINNESOTA,
ELY WAS TO BE HOST

If Wendell A. Willkie, Republican
presidential nominee, had selected
Minnesota as the state for his vaca-
ton trip, he likely would have come to
Ely. Wisconsin was also being con-
sidered, according to press dispatches,
but Willkie selected Colorado.
Victor A. johnson, director of the
Minnesota Tourist Bureau, was work.
ing strenuously to bring the utilities
executive to the Gopher state. john
ston had conferred several times with
Ray Hoefler, secretary of the Ely Com
mercial club, Jacob L. Pete, and Bob
Watts on the facilities available here.
Hoefler told him that Ely would be
willing to go the limit in entertaining
the distinguished business executive,
and emphasized that if Willkie came
here he would be assured a minimum
amount of contact with people so that
he could enjoy his vacation to the
utmost. Airplane service for members
of the press and for communication
purposes was promised.
But for reasons best known to him
self, Willkie selected Colorado. If he
had come to this state, border lakes in
the vicinity of Ely would have un-
doubtedly been the site of his vacation.

793 MILLION
Pike PLANTED
State Stocks 800 Lakes to
Set New Record for Fish
Propagation.

Wall-eye pike propagation scared to
a near record of 793,000,000 fry dis
tributed in some 800 Minnesota lakes
during the season just concluded, the
state game and fish division announced
this week.
Despite the late spring and at times
questionable weather, the division dis
closed its current fry production was
exceeded only by 1888 when record
pike run produced 842,0O0,000 fry. Last
year produced 753,000,O00 fry.
A record breaking egg hatch of from
go to 70 per cent in the states IL
hatcheries was reported by officials.
In a state of nature the fertilization
and hatch of wall-eye pike eggs is
believed by scientists to be one per
cent.
George Weaver, superintendent of
the bureau of fisheries, paid tribute to
the efforts of field superintendent and
the men in charge of the 10 pike netting
stations and the hatcherieS.
Last year at the Waskish field
station eggs Matched only 10 per cent, y
Weaver said. This year, by careful
handling and casting, we obtained an
average of Ct per cent which we be-
lieve to be very high"
Planting of fry was more closely
supervised than in the past, the pro-
pagation report said. Hatchery men
carried on virtually all this work under
direct instructions from the division
Office. Planting was limited to natural
spawning beds.
