Defended by the British fleet, we feel quite safe in this old world village twelve miles west of Edinburgh. And now that the Atlantic lanes of travel are said to be open it seems quite certain that we can sail from Liverpool September 2 on schedule time. Outwardly we see few signs of the titanic struggle. The country life moves on as usual —no flags, no troops, no guns. The lovely rolling landscape, with Its burns and braes, covered with an abundant harvest now being gar nered. is wounded only by industry where the shale mines have thrown out vast hills of refuse. The weather.' with the mercury in the fifties and sixties, is most invigorating, excepting the frequent showers and dull days. The great cities ore quiet. During the first week of the. war there were crowds marching, cheering and sing ing, alonfc the streets, at the railway stations as the troops mobilized, and in front of Buckingham palace. But that has quieted into a silent and grim determination. Our butcher expressed the feeling the other day when he an nounced. "The British will see this thing through." The difference from times of peace •Is in the thought of the people, the quiet but prompt and effective gath ering of the navy and army and the upheaval of commerce. The war is on every one's mind and tongue. It springs to expression in every conversation. The first question is for news. The people are a unit for the honor and defense of the nation. The deep popular distrust of Germany needed only a clear presentation of the wrongs of Belgium and the Jeopardy of Britain to be turned into a conviction which rests on conscience and self-preservation. From the man in the street to the diplomat, all feel the force of th7>se three motives in varying degree—the hatred of Prussian aggression, the treaty obligation to guarantee Belgium's neutrality, and the ultimate danger to the prosperity and even life of the British empire. The German invasion of Belgium and Earl Grey's speech in the House of Commons solidified sentiment. Prac tically all agree on the necessity and righteousness of opposing sword to sword. The Commons voted £IOO,- 000,000 and 500,000 men. We see no light-heartedness or boasting or count ing of eggs before they are hatched, as the Czar seems to be doing in the case of Poland. The Boer war was a warning. Everywhere there is a sense of the tragedy and cost of it all. "It is very depressing." remarked a gen tleman after he had spoken of\ the great movement of troops south in many special trains from Edinburgh to join the expeditionary army. Crys tal Palace is to be used as a hospital. Houses are being offered for public purposes. A school teacher near Dub lin received notice that she need not return from her holidays as the schoolhouse would be turned into a hospital, but later was asked to come as a nurse. The women are organ izing into hands of aid to gather cloth ing, knit woolen socks, canvass for funds, and what not. At a neighbor ing school the teachers are giving outdoor lessons in knitting, the local nobleman donating the wool. A large sum, now a million and a half ster ling, is coming in for the Prince of Wales' relief fund. The Bed Cross and other funds are rising. Even a fund for the relief of Belgians is be ing gathered. The Irish question is dropped; in dustrial disputes are patched up; the dominions overseas send their help, men, money, ships, provisions from the end of the earth, British Columbia, Bengal, New Zealand. There is some thing thrilling in the quick sympathy and swift accord of a mighty empire. It is like seeing a giant crouch to spring. We know little of the movements of fleet or army save that the army is in France and the fleet is on guard. The newspapers with loyal self restraint print nothing to aid the enemy. But never has Britain been better prepared. Statesmen foresaw the inevitable two years ago when Germany tried to make trouble be tween France and England. A year ago the authorities in this region listed the horses. The review of the fleet in July was really a rhobilizatlon. When war came so suddenly all was ready. Plans were put into effect as by the turning on of a switch In a power plant. The fleet was ready in a day and within ten days the army was in France. The people have quiet con fidence in both arms of the service and think it quite certain that the allies will break the power of Prussia and postpone indefinitely Nietzsche's dream of the superman and the conquest of the world. Last Saturday, walking through a stranse villacre, I stopped a miner ajid askrd him the name and population of the hamlet and the use of a new building. Returning in a few minutes past a group on the corner this miner caught my eye and remarked quiz tcally: "Are you a German spy?" Many spies have been taken in and many wild tales are afloat, such as pressing a concealed button and drop pints the Firth of Forth bridge on the Germans If they pass under. Lon don is said to be a little nervous from fear of airships and bombs. Commerce has had a heavy blow already. As England is "a nation of shopkeepers," she feels it. Those who trade with the continent are hit the hardest. During the first week the panic was general. The hank rate rose tn in per cent, and our neighbor, the farmer's wife, put up. her eggs from 32 cents a dozen to 44 cents; RED, SCALY SKIN Cured by our Saxo Salve A Highland, N. Y., woman writes:— "Since 1901 I suffered from eczema and my skin was very tender, red and scaly, and I couki find no relief until I used Saxo Salve. It worked like magic, in less than a week the scales were gone and now the skin is healed and smooth, thanks to Saxo Salve."

Housewives bought up grocers' stocks and for a few days sugar was scarce in this neighborhood. But the slogan Is helng raised, "Business as usual," and the exporters and Importers hope, to capture the German foreign trade. They hope to see a silver lining. It is dreadful work and no one can tell the end. The great wish now is that it may be swift and sure. Editor's Note.—The foregoing letter to the Telegraph is from the Rev. William B.
