BRYAN's SOURCE OF POWER.

Mir. Bryan s visit to Washington has been productive of the most fantastic speculation as to it's motive and result. All this may be dismissed at once as baseless and trivial. Mir. Bryan's posi-. tion with respect to the Democratic nomination for the presidency is sub stantially unchanged, but what is daily growing more certain is that his nom- ination will not and cannot be success fully contested by any other available Democrat. MT. Bryan 8 Washington conferences have contributed to this end, not because MT. Bryan took ad- vantage of them to summarily squelch all opposition, but because they served to rally his friends and supporters and to demonstrate the fimsy backing of the protest which was widely heralded as about to be made against his party leadership. The alleged opposition van ished into thin air, for there was noth- ing tangible about it to begin with, and the only real effect of it has been to show MT. Bryan in frmer grasp of the Democratic situation than ever.

At times when you don't feel just right, when you have a bad stomach, take something that will stimulate for time but something that will positive ly do the very work that the stomach performs under ordinary and normal conditions, something that will make the food digest. To do this you must take natural digestant like Kodol For Dyspepsia. Kodol is a scientific preparation of vegetable acids with nat ural digestants and contains the same juices found in a healthy stomach. Each dose will digest more than 5000 grains of good food.
