Los Angeles (Cal.) Herald

The history of womankind has no parallel to the career of Mary Baker Eddy and its effects on the lives of others, and the woman who passed away at her home in Brookline, Mass., on Saturday night can be said to have directly influenced more persons than any other of her sex either in ancient or modern times. Considered either as a spiritual leader or as to her personality in its more human aspects, Mrs. Eddy was a most wonderful woman.

Considered apart from her religious position this can be said of Mrs. Eddy: The world owes her gratitude for showing how closely sobriety and temperance in act and thought (and the converse) may affect body and spirit alike. If the result of her efforts had only caused the multiplied thousands of her adherents to live more orderly lives and be examples to a headlong age, she would not have lived in vain.
