Excelsior Ste , largest Stove House ' Willing to Acccp Democratic Nomination for President T?NKS CHANGES TO WIN GOOD Mr. Bryan Oft-Repeated Question by Saying That He W41X Accept Dem ocratic domination in 1901?-Does Hot Seek Homination and Will Not Assume to Decide Question of Availability. Lincoln, Neb., Special.-William J. Bryan will accept the ' Democratic nomination for President in 1908, but he will neither ask nor make a ;fight for it. He says that for a year or more he has been pressed to answer the question "Will you accept the nomination?" and he believes the "^public is entitled to an answer and to know the position he occupies. The question that ought to weigh most, he . ?ays, is whether his nomination will --.strengthen" the Democratic party : more than.the nomination of some one else. Not only will he not seek or ask for the nomination, but he will '-_ -net assume to decide the question of Availability, and if thc prize falls to another ho will neither be disappoint ._ed or disgruntled. At the same time, he denies that he has waited this long in a desire to see "v\nom the Repub . Heans arc likely to nominate, or to ascertain'the chances of victory. Mr. Bryan says: "'Now that thc election of 1907- is past and plans are being made for nest year's campaign, Mr. Bryan feels that a statement is due ta the public. Those who prefer another candidate are entitled to know his ^position and those who. favor his nom ination have a right to demand an answer to the question so often put 'Tviii you accept? nominaationT* his ? refusai-Tto^answer the question has led io tho circulation of many false reports and unfriendly newspapers ' have taken advantage of his silence to misrepresent his attitude. Will Not Seek Nomination. - "Mr. Bryan will not ask for or I seek a nomination and he will not as jp sume to decide the question of his a availability. He has been so amply M recompensed hy his party, for what |g he has don? and for what he has. *ni >! peavored to do that he cannot cLim a nomination as-a reward; neither should his ambition be considered for he has had honors enough f/oni his I party to satisfy any reasonable am bition. The only question that ought to weigh with the party is whether 1 the party can be strengthened and - aid?d more- by his nomination than jg by the nomination of some one else. If he can serve the party hy being its I candidate,. he will accept the commis . -sion and make the best fight he can. Ii', howev?r, the choice falls upon - another, he will not he disappointed or disgruntled. His availability is a cuesti?n to be deemed not by him, nor by a few leaders, not even by the jeading newspapers that call them selves Democratic, hut by the voters of the party and to them, he entrusts the decision of the question-r-they are the Supreme Court in all matters concerning candidates, as they are in all matters concerning the platform. Party Must Depend Upon Its Merits "He assumes that they will not select him unless they desire to make au aggressive fight for the applica tion of Democratic principles to pre sent conditions, and he also takes it for granted that the organization of the party will he in harmoflv with the platform, and will be composed of men who sec political records and will invite confidence and give assur ance ti at a victory, if won, will not be a harreii victory. "The Republicans must nominate either a reformer, a stand patter or one whose position on public ques tions is unknown, and the cofirse of the D?mocratie party should be the some no matter which element con trols the Republican convention. The D?mocratie party must make the flght for what it believes. While it may take advantage of Republican mis takes, it must depend upon its own merits for success and not upon the error of its opponents.

The Women's costume in Holland, declares a writer in Scribner's, ls a trifle too complex for verbal descrip tion, as feminine belongings usually are, but the white laco cap which covers the head from eyebrows to nape of neck and' from ear to ear, curving out in rounded wings on each side of her cheeks, ?3 always a con spicuous and inevitable portion of a v/oman's attire. It may possibly be hat on Sunday this cap is a trifle whiter or stiffer or daintier than on week days, but the difference ls not very apparent. The ladies assure us there is a vast difference in the quality of the net and the amount of hand work employed, but the lens made no spe cial note of that In shape and out line the camera finds gr ^t distinc tion between these caps and those of Katwyk or Marken or Bois le Due, but between Sunday and Monday, caps in Volendam it records none what ever. For the rest of the costume 'eminine Holland asks, .above all things, apparently, a very fat, nar row chest surmounting enormous hips, and Volendam is no exception to this fashion rule. The Invariable black "best wai?t" of the elder women ia usually brightened by a square yoke of lighter color and material, and the dark apron or overskirt is top ped by six inches or more of gay plaid or bright-colored band,^ worn over an underskirt of dullblue strip ed OF black material and uncountable petticoats. About the throat a col lar formed of many rows of heavy, dark-red coral beads, is fastened by huge silver clasps, and the numbei of rows, the size and quality of th? beads are matter for feminine pride. Long hair is not the glory of woman in Holland, save, perhaps, at Marken. It ls usually hidden, and at Volen dam is cut quite close and entirelj covered by a tight-fitting thick black cap concealed beneath the snowj white lace. The younger girls, from the tiniest toddler to the young meisje old enough to wed, wear dresses and caps the exact counterpart of theil grave mothers, no less full of skirl or narrow of chest, but much gayel in color. A group of tiny maidens lu a stiff breeze on I he dike resemble! nothing more than a swarm of butter flies. It Surprised Her. "When my husband was in Spain last year," said Mrs. Swellman, "he succeeded in buying in quite a lot of the King's wines."

Patient-Then, doctor, you'll have, to find some way of sending my wife away. . SCHOOL TEACHERS Also Have Things to Learn. "For many years I have used coffee and refused to be convinced of its bad effect upon the human system," i writes a veteran school teacher. "Ten years ago I was obliged to I give up my much loved work in the public schools after years of continu ous labor. I had developed a well defined case of chronic coffee poison- 1 lng. i "The troubles were constipation, flutterings of the heart, a thumping in the top of my head and various parts of my body, twitching of my limbs, shaking of my head and, at times after exertion, a general 'gone' feeling with a toper's desire for very strong coffee. I was a nervous wreck for years. "A short time ago friends came to visit us and they brought a package of Postum with them, and urged me to try it. I was prejudiced because some years ago T Xvi drunk a cup of weak, tasted ?tuff called-Postum, which I did not like at all. - "ThiB time, howeve.*, my friend made the Postum according to direc tions on the package, and it won me. Suddenly 1 found myself improving -in a most decided fashion. "The odor of boiling coffee no lon ger tempts me. I am so greatly bene fited by Postum that if I continue to improve aa I am now, I'll begin to think I have found the Fountain ci Perpetual Youth.

"Air Hogs" the Latest. i "Air Hog" is the epithet applied by j the author of one cf the typical 1 growls tho English send to the edi tor of "The London Times." The correspondent was sitting reading in his gardon, he says, when he noticed a balloon pass overhead and pretty * Boon after received a shower of the ? ballast that was nothing more or less { than "dirt." He goes on to work up indignation against the time when air-travel becomes a fad of the vul gar rich: "Suppose I am peacefully tracking a snail to its lair, and I am suddenly assailed with the tea-slops and heel-taps of a millionaire's tea party. . . . Multiply the instance, and you have a country oppressed as if under the domination of the Puri tans." This promptly elicited a reply from the Aero Club. Its secretary pointed out that the ballast is fine sand, and is dispensed by a small acoop, representing about a handful. The balloon '.u flight ls so nicely bal anced that the smallest quantity thrown out commonly suffices to change its position as desired. More over, the material is so fine that be fore it has dropped a few yards from the balloon it is diffused over a very large area. Even when a whole bag is dropped in an emergency, tuc ef feet upon anybody on the ground would not be more of a whirl of dust i than is often stirred up by a motor car.
