LIFE POLICIES NOT TAXABLE. Supreme Court of Indiana So Decides Bat an Appeal May be Taken. The Supreme court of Indiana dedided yesterday that life Insurance policies were not tartble under the present constitution and laws of the state. Justice McCabe, who wrote the opinion, WAS supported by Justices Hackney and Jordan. Justices Howard and Monks dissent.

In support of the argument that the legislature of 1891 did not intend to provide for the taxation of life fosurance policies it was pointed out that the tax law passed that year did not provide any regulation for the valuation of policies. In that and subsequent statues the legialature, it de recalled, provided special regulations for the valuation of all other classes of property that are difficult to value. Justice Howard in the dissenting opinion took to the view that ance policies had a "property" value and that under the constitution and the general terms of the tax law all kinds of property must be assessed unless it be specifically exempted by the constitution. The case may be taken to the 80- preme court of the United States. The board of tax commissioners will meet this week to decide.

How an Egg Should Be Boiled. There is no better way to boil an egg than pot to pot ic on the fire at all. Instead of this the boiling water should be poured upon the eggs, and they then should covered, and set aside for ten minates. Cooks who try this recipe complain of its uncertainty. If the eggs are done "just right," they are perfection, the white a thick custard and the yolk smooth and rich.

But sometimes, at the end of the ten minntes, they are scarcely "set" at all, and sometimes they are too hard. The reason for this occasional failure is that a proper amount of water has not been allowed. This varies according to the contents of the saucepan. There should be half pint of -and it should hare boiled bard for several moments before 15- ing--for each egg. How to Make Savory Butter.
