"HONOR TO WHOM HONOR IS DUE."

Archibald McLellan

The news item from the Concord Patriot which appears on this page will be read with much pleasure by Christian Scientists, and also by all others who appreciate the character of Mrs. Eddy's work, her intense activity in behalf of humanity, and the benefits which have accrued to the race through her spiritual discernment and her teachings. The honor that has just been conferred upon our Leader is the occasion for an editorial in the Boston Journal from which we quote as follows:—

The honor which the French government has bestowed upon Mrs. Eddy must afford considerable pleasure to Christian Scientists, particularly those who rallied around her years ago in this city and have been more or less closely associated with her in the upbuilding of the new denomination. Mrs. Eddy's writings and the new creed which she has founded thus receive official recognition from a government whose officers, judging by the course which they have followed in recent years, are heartily in sympathy with twentieth-century tendencies.
