Pauline Waddington Holme (November 12, 1848 – June 14, 1940) was an American temperance worker and suffragist.

In 1895, she spoke on "the purification of the press" at the National Purity Congress; her committee's efforts involved writing letters to editors, with "an appeal for the exclusion of detailed and sensational reports of the evil doings of the day, and all immoral or questionable advertisements from our newspapers" .

[7] She was active in the Baltimore Yearly Meeting of the Society of Friends, and served on the congregation's committees, including those on philanthropic labor, schools, and Indian affairs.

[8][9][10] A poem by Holme, "Speaking Evil", appeared in an 1893 collection of works by women writers, published in connection with the World's Columbian Exposition.

[11] Waddington married dairyman Richard Henry Holme in 1883; they had three children together, including Quaker relief worker and book collector Hilda P.
