THE ALCAZAR
"Playing With Fire,” is a feature at
the Alcazar Tuesday.
Wonderful Madame Petrova, justly
acclaimed as the most giftey emotional
artist, now appearing on either the
stage or the screen, again makes her
bow to Metro audiences in this dis
tinctive production from the pen of!
Aaron Hoffman, picturized exclusively
for the Metro program by Popular
Plays and Players under the direction
of Francis J. Grandon. In every Metro
screen production in which Madame
Petrova has appeared, this famous
star has achieved a real triumph of art
ard in this, her latest contribution to
the silent drama, she has set a new
i high mark. Her two most recent suc-
I cesses were “What Will People Say?”
and “The Soul Market,” and her many
■admirers will find in "Playing With
Fire,” all that delighted them in these!
| two superb photo dramas as well as j
' many new and novel effects and tense!
situations, which belong exclusively to
the present production.
"Playing With Fire” deals with the'
life story of Jean Servian, a beautiful
cameo cutter, whose artistic career,
comes to a close through blindness.l
She regains her sight and weds,
through gratitude, a man whose daugh
ter, only a little younger than herself,
1 warships ana scouts in the North Sea,
and went out into the Atlantic, where
he sank tome eight or ten British
vessels, When he felt his mission was
fulfilled he quietly steamed back and
entered a German harbor. It was an
1 exploit as daring as anything in the
i annals of the sea.

AN EXPLANATION
Os the Real Functions o? Ar
Effective Medicine
BY THE NUXCARA COMPANY
It has been a source of general won
der how the many different forms ot
stomach trouble can be successfully
treated with tha same remedy. Hence
this word of explanation. Medicine wil
not cure stomach trouble or any othe
disease Your own healing force mus
restore the diseased organ to healthful
ness. A medicine of real worth serves
the single function of producing condi
tions in which your healing force may
be unhindered.
For 15 years the Naxcara treatment,
based on this logical principle, has had
complete success in the treatment of all
forms of stomach trouble. Write for
