Already 85 dead have been recuvered from the ruinsof Cumbal, which with the town of Chile suffered most severely from the effects of the shocks, ac- g to the reports thus far re- Chile is situated on the slope® of the Chile voleand, to ‘the eruption of which the present disaster is attributed. Mayor's Wife Killed. Among those who perished were the wife and fatfier of the mayor of ‘Cumbal. The ro&f from Cumbal to Ipiales is obstructed by great landslides, and the full extent of the earth- quake has not yet been learned. Numerous surrounding villages are believed to have been bedly dam- aged, and a commission of govern- ment officials has been sent to in- spect the affected zone. As usual in such cases there are many home- Tess and there is a lack of food and shelter. The earth shocks were felt along the southern frontier of Colombta, the village of Carlo Sama being de- stroyed. Pasto, Ipiales, Tuquerres and Ibarra were in the direct line of the earth tremors and were badly 1,,| shaken. “Latest reports say that ser- ious damage was caused at Ipiales. The volcanoes of Cumbal and Chile are in ace eruption. TAPESTRY JACQUETTE A stunning jacquette is made of tapestry banded with’ fox and worn with a skirt of dark green wool.

Jchnson has a boss! All through his strentous cam-| paign days, Minnesoga’s new dirt! farmer senator, denied the bosses held u.‘y sway over him. But now he admits there is one person in all the world from whom he has to take orders. And that is i his wife. “But she’s the only boss I've had since I quit glass blowing,” says Magnus apologetically. “And she is the pest boss any fellow ever, had.” Mrs. Johnson, now comfortably settled in her new home in Tocoma Park, admits she doesn’t look upon her stay in Washington with | the same anticipation most women would, “You know,” she declares, “I wouldn’t consent to come here at all until Magnus promised he would get me a cow and. some chickens and not insist on mye going to receptions and the other parties senator's wives usually are eager to attend.” Mrs. Johnson, though, is a close student of political affairs. There never is a question that ,will affect the mothers of the country, or the women voters as a_ whole, upon which she isn’t versed. And Magnus always talks these things over with her before he makes up his mind just how he will stand on it.
