Her advice on marriage was syndicated in newspapers around the world. With an estimated audience of 60 million readers, she became a popular and recognized figure on her travels abroad. In addition to her journalistic work, she joined in the campaign for women's suffrage and the ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution."
