When Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science and author of the Christian Science text-book, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," passed away, it was predicted by a few that the Christian Science church, which had reached its greatest influence, would by reason of her absence decline as rapidly as it had risen; yet with her passing appeared in the press throughout the entire world such genuine tributes of praise of her life and work, in special articles and in editorials, that the very reverse of this prediction was found to be the fact.
