Cambridge. Mass, April 29.-The in
quest on the death of Miss Annie Null

cut off. was found in a field in Airing
ton on March 2S. last. was resumed by
Judge Stone in the district court to-
day, with half dozen witnesses to be
heard.

ment has not been able to obtain any
clew as to how the woman met her
death nor has the medical examiner
been able to determine whether she
was murdered or took her own life.
The absence of any weapon near the
scene has led to the impression. how
ever that Miss Mullins was murdered.
Among the witnesses today were Wal
ter Cook and Minot Cheever, the two
boys who found the body.

and should be borne In mind by all
women travellers. It Is a mistake. as
she says, for women to sc0wl at men
when they are diseourteous: they
would find It more polite, on the other
hand to thank profusely and gracious
" whenever the smallest courtesy is
shown. The same policy should be
pursued in the home. If sisters and
mothers were to literally made a
fuss, appear truly grateful, and show
elaborate appreciation whenever their
male relatives do condescend to in
dulge in little acts Of politeness, these
susceptible creatures would fall into
the pretty little trap. Man loves to
be fattered; he likes to think he is
a fine fellow, that he has made a
good impression, If it is only on his
