The average intelligence of Christian Scientists ranks far ahead of the intelligence of any other creedal membership, and in its ranks are found many talented and intellectual people. It is only the uninformed who attempt to deny these facts. To have founded such a faith, whether it last ten or a thousand years after her death, is a wonderful and glorious work. They who did not know Mrs. Eddy personally have no means of judging her save by her work, and this was only good. She found a large body of intelligent, broad-minded, unorthodox men and women, who still demanded a set and limited religious belief, and she gave them one the like of which the history of the world has never seen. She found ailing, nervous, and diseased men and women who, being unable to cure their own ills, were as unsuccessful in securing health from orthodox sources, and she healed them—thousands of them. Only the uninformed will care to deny it. Mrs. Eddy was in many respects the most remarkable figure in all the nineteenth century and in the first decade of the twentieth.
