At a great age, Mrs. Eddy, the Founder and Leader of the Christian Science church, has passed away. She was a woman of very high ability along the lines which she chose or was led in her life-work. To formulate a system of belief, organize a church which spread with such strength and rapidity as the Christian Science church has done, and to retain the love, veneration, and devotion of such multitudes of her fellow-beings as Mrs. Eddy has done, shows the possession by her of qualities as remarkable as they were vital. It is idle to decry her or her work, in view of her resplendent success; to speak of a monument for her is but to ask for gilding to the fine gold of achievement for her work, and the church she founded will be her ever-present and most splendid memorial for all time. That work is a marvel, amazing to whoever will consider it candidly for what it is, and in its inception and growth. It is now one of the mighty factors in American life, and is still pushing on.
