against an investigation on the
ground that while the invitation had
been extended TO those making
charges zone had come forward in an
effort TO sustain them. and that all
which had been presented to the com.

charges were based on hearsay. and
that there was no direct evidence.

SENATOR URDAHL
HAPPY AND HEALTHY HE RE
TURNED FROM PIERRE
THIS MORNING.

Senator Hans Urdahl returned
from Pierre by the north train this
morning and has been warmly
greeted by his friends today. Sena-
tor Urdahl Is in excellent health and
fine legislative fettle.
The legislature took a recess yes
terday which will continue until
Monday and most of the members
went to their homes TO look after
private business.
Senator Urdahl said the last ses-
sion Of the senate before the recess
closed in something of a turmoil In
which he, perhaps unfortunately,
was the member who touched the
match to the bomb.
1T is something of a long story,
said Senator Urdahl.
For some time certain members
and other interests have been plan
ming a new method of amending the
constitution in various respects. A
constitutional convention which has
been often proposed has not met with
favor. Hence, a plan was conceived
whereby a commission was to be APP
nointed to draft constitutional
amendments, recommend their adop-
ton. etc. Senator Urdahl was con
yersant with the move and knew Of
the various conferences on the sub
iect. The plan, however, was not 10
his satisfaction.
Yesterday, the plans of those IN
terested completed, Senator Dowdell
offered a bill for the appointment OF
a commission to draft and otherwise
handle constitutional amendments.
Senator Urdahl was on his feet IN
a moment and pointed out to n SEN
ate that the bill was designed TO
usurp the rights of a constitutional
convention and place them in the
hands of a commission, and other
wise scored the proposition in the
way he knows so well how to do.
While the proposition looks very
innocent on the face of il, when fully
analyzed by Senator Urdahl, the
members sat up and took notice
and something of a sensation prevail
ed in the senate.
Recess adjournment came IN the
midst of the discussion, but some
fireworks may be expected upon re-
Stunning sessions after the recess.

Hot Water Bottle
as Big as a Wash Tub

In old Japan the weather gets very cold
at times. Houses made of rice paper, while
very nice from an artistic standpoint are not
much OF a success in a Japanese blizzard.
Charcoal, the popular fuel of the island, can
not be used to any great extent i'm these air
ught houses on account of the poisonous
gasses generated. Therefore, every family
that can afford it has a large rubber water
bottle about the size of a wash tub, which is
filled with hot water at bedtime and placed
in the center of the room. Around this bot
tle-like the spokes of a wheel-lie the men,
bers of the family, with their feet resting on
the center of attraction. Over the whole af-
fair is an enormous circular quilt or blanket
which reminds you of the pancakes mother
used to make" Now a hot water bottle that
will withstand the kicks of the entire family
must be made of the right kind of stuff. The
material that goes into these large hot water
bottles made for the Japanese is the very
same material that goes into the smaller bot
ties sold by us, and are the only kind we show
you when you ask to see the best" We have
sold a lot of rubber goods i'm our time, but the
bottles mentioned i'm this advertisement come
nearer to perfection than any we have seen
so far. If you have had trouble with rubber
goods in the past try one of our guaranteed
brands.
