HARRISBURG TELEGRAPIf
f " \
War Time in Britain
By REV. WILLIAM B. COOKE
We are spending the summer in
Scotland. The drum beat of war is
across the North Sea. 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."
If we can't cure your skin trouble
with our Saxo Salve and Saxo Soap we
will buy back the empty tube.

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. Cooke, former pastor of
the Steelton Presbyterian Church, who
writes from Scotland under date of
August 21. Mr. Cooke has been in the
Philippines for four years and says in
a note to the editor: "My sister and I
are looking forward with great inter
est to our return to Central Pennsyl
vania after four years' absence In Ma
nila." Mr. Cooke will arrive in this
country early in September and will
supply the Market Square Presby

To Look Young Quickly
For Special Occasion
How often have you fussed and put
tered with your face on the eve of some
important social event when you want
ed to look your prettiest, and try what
you would you just couldn't get the de
sired result! Next time your face be
comes unruly, exhibiting a careworn and
saggy appearance, and crisscrossed
with fine lines, here's something that
will quickly transform it Into one of
youthful freshness.
Just get an ounce of powdered saxo
lite at your druggist's, mix this with
about a half pint of witch hazel, and
bathe your face In the solution for two
or three minutes. Immediately after
you feel a "firming up" of the skin and
underlying tissue, which naturally Irons
out the little wrinkles, worry marks
and flahhiness. The contour and gen
eral appearance of your face are so im
proved, you will be glad you heard of
this Simple and harmless method.—Ad
vertisement.
