Since it was running fine yesterday it's hard to imagine something mechanical failing while sitting, so it's pretty much got to be fuel or glow related. The "ether puff" would overcome failed glow relay. Fuel possibilities include bad fuel, clogged filters, stuck shutoff valve, marginal lift pump, strainer, air, etc.

Where did you fuel up last and what's the current fuel level?

Automatic action (assuming you don't have a fuel pressure gauge) is to replace both filters.
