per from some man who
appeared to be a working physicist of the time--Edgar Lucien Larkin:

"With the discovery and recent perfection of the new ultra-violet light
microscope and the companion apparatus, the microphotographic camera,
with rapidly moving, sensitive films, it seems that the extreme limit of
vision of the human eye has been reached. Inorganic and organic
particles have been seen, and these so minute that (the smallest)
objects visible in the most powerful old-style instruments are as huge
chunks in comparison. An active microscopic universe as wonderful as the
sidereal universe, the stellar structure, has been revealed. This
complexity actually exists; but exploration has scarcely commenced.
Within a hundred years, devoted to this research, the micro-universe may
be partially understood. Laws of micro-movements may be detected and
published in textbooks like those of the gigantic universe suns and
their concentric planets and moons. I cannot look into these minute
moving and living deeps without instantly believing that they are
mental--every motion is controlled by mind. The longer I look at the
amazing things, the deeper is this conviction. This micro-universe is
rooted and grounded in a mental base. Positively and without hope of
overthrow, this assertion is made--the flying particles know where to
go. Coarse particles, those visible in old-time microscopes, when
suspended in liquids, were observed to be in rapid motion, darting to
all geometrical directions with high speed. But the ultra-violet
microscope reveals moving trillions of far smaller bodies, and these
rush on geometric lines and cutout angles with the most incredible
speed, specific for each kind and type."

What were the angles? Eugene asked himself. Who made them? Who or what
arranged the geometric lines? The "Divine Mind" of Mrs. Eddy? Had this
woman really found the truth? He pondered this, reading on, and then one
day in a paper he came upon this reflection in regard to the universe
and its government by Alfred Russel Wallace, which interested him as a
proof that there might be, as Jesus said and as Mrs. Eddy contended, a
Divine Mind or central thought in which there was no evil intent, but
only good. The quotation was: "Life is that power which, from air and
water and the substances dissolved therein, builds up organized and
highly complex structures possessing definite forms and functions; these
are presented in a continuous state of
