The great woman fighter Teresa BoIsi, in her prime was a torera of high repute Lisbon. too. had a famous torera forty years ago.

Anfi-N orrv Pndn.

Among sure =preventtves for gray hairs and crows feet a certain busy woman sets down what she calls an anti-worry pad. She keeps an ordinary note-size writing pad on her dressing table, and on this she jots down a list of engagements, letters to be answered, business to be attended to, articles needed for house or for personal use, conveniences, charities and all the other interest that enter into a busy life, as they come to her mind. By this means she relieves herself of the worrying sense of something forgotten, which is apt to haunt the woman or man whose days are filled with a mul- tiplicity of demands, and who has no secretary to keep him or her remem- bering details. For such, the anti worry pad is recommended as a nerve and temper tonic.
