The Elk Pint Coop groceteria has decided to take two household products containing high levels of alcohol off its shelves.

The two products, Lysol disinfectant and Listerine mouthwash, have been linked to high incidents of shoplifting and are suspected of being misused.

Store manager Rodger McLaughlin said he won't be reordering the two products once stock has been depleted. In fact if that doesn't happen fast enough, he plans to ship remaining supplies to the St. Paul store.

When Frank Yatchotay left his home in Indian Cabins 30 years ago so his children could go to school, he was leaving behind the lifetime of traditional hunting and fishing he had enjoyed since he was a boy.

But there was a sadness in his voice when he told how he lost two of his 10 children since moving his family to Meander River, where they could get an education.

He blamed the deaths on alcohol and said he's learned to deal with the tragedies by helping to provide the best home possible for his grandchildren.
