“THE WOMAN GAME"
LAST TIME, COLISEUM
That matrimony is “the woman
frame’’ in the same sense that busi
ness is “the mail game" anil that a
woman may use any weapon in her
power t/> obtain her objective the
same as a man operating in Wall
Stree* anil carrying on any sort of
business, is the theme in ‘The Wo
man Game,” iho latent Selznlck pic
ture-play, starring beautiful Elaine
Hammer stein, which is playing at tii *
Coliseum ami on tonight for th ■ last
time.
This is a novel theme an 1 has I
been handled in a most unusual way, j
making a photo-drama filled with >
highly dramatic moments and much
real heart interest.
Elaino Haminorstein is seen in the
role of an impoverished society beau
ty, who seeks to make a good ntar
i
rloge because of the laments of lior
mother who impresses upon the Kiri
that this is her duty.
As Amy, Miss llammerstein is
splendid. She is surrounded by u
capable cast and the entire produc
tion is another big uccoos for th .
Seiznk k -studios. The wealth of do
j tail noticeable in all SeUnick pic
i lures is prosent and the usual won
I derail interior scenes are much ,n
I evidoni o.

NAZIMOVA DANCES
IN LATEST PICTURE
Playing the fascinating rale of a
London music hall dancer who finds
romance in the heart of India, the
superb Xuzimoiu is coining to the
Coliseum Theater for a run of two
days, beginning tomorrow. The Rus
sian sun's newest screen vehicle is
entitled "Stronger Than Death,” and
adtance account* of the production
describe it as tile most ambitious yet
done by Nuzimov.i.
“Stronger Than It 'ath" is a sereen
adaptation of the brilliant novel by
I. (A. R. Wylie. It is a story of a
beautiful and poetic love, which de
velops between a man and a woman
placed by fate into an atmosphere of
danger and swiftly moving events.
Stirring drama at all times illumines
the narrative, making it one of those
stories that gets a strong hold upon
the emotions of (he spectator,
Ilriofly. it concerns one iJigrhl Per
son. favorite of Paris and London I
theaters, who arrives in an English j
army barrack-3 town deep In the
jungles of India. She meets a hostile
reception from the small and gossipy
community of llritish, but her per
sonality wins them after her firs!
test.
R»ne rails in lore with a physician,
known as tiio hermit doctor, who is
devoting his life to treating tho na
tive Hindus during an epidemic of
cholera. Because of tho harshness
of the British commander of th" post,
and a wrong ho had committed
against “the bride of Vishnu," a(
sacred dancer of the temple, tin
native troops, incited by the high
priest of the temple, plan a revolt.
On the night tho uprising is to
take place, with a massacre of t ie
whites as its object, Slgrid goes to
the temple steps to dance in the
moonlight, ns her lover had often
dreamed of her doing. Her lithe
figure, in flowing white, fills the na
tives with awe, and believing her to
he the reincarnation of the defiled
“bride of Vishnu,” they fall down
to worship her. .She dances until
she is exhausted, in order to hold
the 'blacks from their contemplated
revolt, and by so doing enables Brit
ish reinforcements to get up and
save tho situation.

ACID STOMACH
SOURS THE FOOD
' ■_
Says Excess of Hydrochloric
Acid Is Cause of
Indigestion.
A well-known authority states
that stomach trouble ami indigestion
are nearly always clue to acidity—I
acid etomaeli — and not, as mosi j
folks believe, from a lack of di-i
gestive juices. He rtates that an
excess of hydrochloric acid in the]
stomach retards digestion and starts!
food fermentation; then our meals
four like garbage In a can. forming
acrid fluids and gases, which inflate'
the; stomach like a toy balloon. We
then get that heavy, lumpy feeling
in the chest, we eructate sour food,
belch gas or have heartburn, flatu
lence, water-brash or nausea.
Jlc tells us to lay aside all di
gestive aids aud instead get from any
pharmacy four ounces of Jad Salt
and take a tablespoonfu! in a glassl
of waier before breakfast, while it is1
effervescing, and fui*1 iiermore, to!
continue this for one week. While]
relief often follows the first dose, it
is important to neutralize the acid-1
ity, remove t lie gas-making mass,
start the liver, stimulate the kidneys
and (bus promote a free flow of pure
digestive juices.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and is
made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined wiTTT* litliia'
and sodium phosphate. This harmless
salts is used by thousands of stom
ach sufferers, with excellent results.]
