From recent letters published in q

from such a fate! So far, their most
serious physical handicap consists In
the corset that a distorted feminine
judgment still generally insists upon
their wearing. About that extraor-
dinary implement of torture-for that
is what 1t amounts to-the one thing
that prevents its killing of a consid-

that most perfect product of nature

ABOUT CUTTING TIMBER.

The prospect of a wood famine
in Vinita and in the towns of the
Northern District is more and
more apparent every day. II has
been oocasioned by the order is
sued by Inspector ], George
Wright, and sought to be ex.
planned away by Agent Shoenfelt.
There are very few Cherokee oiti-
zens who have the privilege Of 60
ing out and cutting timber from
their own allotments or from land
they expect to take as their allot-
ments. Inspector Wright says:
"A recognized citizen of the Cher
okee nation in possession of not
more than his proportionate share
of The lands Of the tribe, intended
in good faith to be taken as an al
lotment, may cut timber for the
purpose Of erecting improvements
thereon, such as fences. buildings,
etc., and for no other purpose may
cut timber. These are the con-
ditions, and no one else is privi-
eyed a. mt timber at all. Fire.
'ood is not cut for the purpose Of
improving land, therefore it does
not come under the permission
allowed by the inspector. The
agent, however, says that so long
as the usual discretion is used by
woodchoppers and woodhaulers
in taking the timber, there can be
no objection whatever. This is
the more reasonable statement,
out it does not harmonic with the
order Of Inspector Wright.
