Walsh, Oout of Jail Nine Days, Dies
John r. Walsh, former banker and
railroad owner, who was released on
parole just ten days ago from the fed
eral prison at LeavenwOrth, Kansas,
died of heart disease in Chicago.
Mr. Walsh had been in bed most OF
the time since his arrival in Chicago
from Leavenworth, Oct 10. He had
been attended constantly by physi-
clans.
Mr.. Walsh had been sent to the
penitentiary on charges of misappro.
priating the funds OF the Chicago Ma
tional bank to the use of other enter
prises.
Mr.. Walsh's health failed soon after
he entered the penitentiary. An imme.
diate movement to obtain his release
on parole was begun by members of
his family At that time the examining
physician at the penitentiary said Mr..
Walsh was suffering with hardening
of the arteries. After his release. it
is believed, he was further weakened
by a long, cold automobile ride of
twenty-siX miles from the prison to
Kansas City. When he arrived home
on the morning OF Oct. 10 he was so
i'll and weak that he went to bed at
once and remained there uatil his
death

We are sometimes asked by housewives
if Fels-Naptha soap is as good for washing
clothes in winter as in summer. Better, if
that is possible.
The best thing about Fel8-Naptha is that
you don't have to boil the clothes either
winter or summer. And because boiling is
more diSagreeable in winter, Fels-Naptha
is greater blessing then. In the winter
doors and windows are closed, and the
nauseous odor of boiling clothes cannot
escape to the open air; then, too, steam
looSenS and wrinkles wall paper And
chapped hands are caused by dipping them
in hot water and then exposing to the cold.
] ~You don't need hot water in washing
with FelszNapItha. But be sure and use it
tions on the red and green wrapper.
