soYBEANs IN MARYLAND.

OF late q great deal of interest
in soybeans has been manifested
throughout Maryland. Soybeans are
well adapted to practically all sections
Of Maryland, as far as climate Is con.
cerned, but thrive best on rich loan
and clay soils. They will not grow as
well as cowpeas on poor, sandy soils,
but are far better than coypeas on
stiff, clay soils. They will also stand
poor drainage better than cowpeas
will. In other words, in those sections
where cowpeas do not grow well, soy
beans will be far more satisfactory.
They are also better adapted to the
stiff clay soils in the sections now pro-
ducing cowpeas well than the cowpeas
are.
The two important factors to be
taken into consideration in the pro-
duction Of soybeans are incubation

q CENTS DESTROYS
YOUR DANDRUFF and
STOPS FALLING HAIR
Save your hair! Make 1t thick, wavy
and beautiful-try this!

Thin, brittle. colorless and scrag-
" hair Is mute evidence of ne
elected scalp; of dandruff-that aw-
full scurf.
There is nothing so destructive to
the hair as dandruff. 1t robs the
hair of its lustre, its strength and
its very life; eventually producing a
feverishness and itching of the
scalp, which if not remedied causes
the hair roots to shrink, loosen and
die-then the hair falls out fast. A
little Danderine tonight-now-any
time-will surely save your hair.
Get a ascent bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine from any drug store or
toilet counter, and after the first ap-
plication your hair will take on that
life, lustre and luxuriance which is
20 beautiful. 1t will become wavy
and fluffy and have the appearance
Of abundance, an Incompatible gloss
and softness; but what will please
you most will be after just few
weeks use. when you will actually
see q lot of fine, downy hair-new
hair-growing all over the scalp

version of the fighting as to the sec

Tuesday, in a Two-and-a-half-hou
battle, the crown princes armies, BY
delivering massed attacks, succeeded
in gaining a footing in the Frencl
lines at two points between Bethin
court and Dead Mans Hill, the domi
mating height, which is the immed .ate
object of the present German drive.
Tuesday night the French launched
heavy counter attacks and by usinE
the bayonet and hand grenades freely
declare they were able to recaptuct
portions OF the trenches the German:
had taken.
The Germans made heavy sacrifices
in attempting to cut the French line
and obtain possession Of Dead Man
Hill, Paris declares. Possession o..
this height has enabled the French tt
sweep with their artillery the terri
tory over which the Germans were en-
deavoring to advance against the fort

and the village of Cumieres, shows
that the French line now extend
south of Corbeaux forest. The French
line northwest Of Verdun Is now very

a Famous Onai

The most famous opal in history was
that which was worn in ring by the
Roman senator Nonius in the day of
the triumvirate. Its size cqualed that
of medium sized haZelnut. yet its
beauty and brilliaDcy rendered it a
marvel among the dilettanti Of Rome.
especially when it was known that the
goldsmiths and money changers had
set its value at $l.O00.O00 Mark An
tony made oyertures to Nonius for its
purchase. intending, it is thought. to
present it to Cleopatra. but the senator
refused to part with it and for fear
that it would be taken from him by
sheer force sought safety in flight
Here history loses all trace of this ia
nous gem, there being no record Of its
transfercnce from Nonius to any of his
family.
