BOUND TOCOLLECT TAXES
No New Orders Issued Regarding the
Indian Territory.

J. Blair Shoenfelt, Indian agent
Tor the Eivo Civilized Nations, re-
turned from Washington Monday.
Regarding the reports that orders
had been given by the Department,
of the Interior to enforce the col.
lection OF all tribal taxes, Mr..
Shoenfelt stated that no new
orders had been issued and that so
far as he knew the collection OF
taxes would go on just as 1t has
been. This means that the govern
ment cannot collect tribal taxes in
tho Greek nation, Tns agent
further stated that il was his
opinion that taxes in the Choctaw
and Chickasaw nations were under
the supervision Of the tribal an
thorities, and thai he had been in
formed they would push the col.
lection. The tribal tax is / 10
per cent upon all good q introd uced

One Of the secrets of perfectly laun

Always turn garments wrong side ou1
before putting them in the starch, rub
and clap the starch well through, but
do not let bit OF it run upon the right
side. Thin materials should not be
starched at all, but should be dipped
into gum water made of white gum
arabic. Especial care should be taken
| In sprinkling such garments, as they
cannot stand the drenching which

A chicken, weighing two pounds or
more, may be "broiled" in the follow
ing manner: Split down the back and

hot water. Cover and allow the
chicken to steam, adding little water

cover with Maitre d'hotel butter. For
this, cream two tablespoonfuls OF but
ter, adding gradually the juice of 4
lemon, tablespoonful OF finely
minced parsley. and a little nutmeg.
This sauce, II may be added, is one
OF the simplest and at the same time
one Of the most delicious. and is good

Every cook should know how to

nothing adds more TO the appetising
qualities OF meal. The French cynic
