LOEB A MAN OF TACT
HOW THE PRESIDENTS SECRETARY
HAS FORGED TO THE FRONT.

Began as n Messenger Boy and Now
Receives n Senator's saInry-HOw
the Work of the omce Has Grown
Since Buchanan's Time.
Next to the members of the cabinet,
perhaps no man in the political life OF
the national capital occupies a more con-
spicuous position than William Loeb,
Jr., secretary to President Roosevelt.
Secretary Loeb has been the present
chief executives right hand man since
he went to Washington in 1901, and he
has been nearer to the president during
the past two years than any other man.
When President Roosevelt was gov
ernor of New York Mr.. Loeb was his
private secretary, served in the same
capacity when he became vice presi-
dent, and when, at the death of the late
William Mckinley, Vice President
Roosevelt became president Mr.. Loeb
still remained with him, acting then as
assistant secretary, for Mr.. Cortelyou
was the presidents secretary, as he
had been under Mckinley.
As secretary to the president Mr..
Loeb receives a senator's salary, $4,000
u year. Ills lslIh ID Dul Il SlGD DtiOW
that of heads of departments, and his
office has been thrice the stepping stone
to the cabinet, the most recent instance
being the advancement of Mr.. Cortel-
you to the head of the new department
of commerce and labor. The Office of
the secretary, judging by the past, Of
fers a splendid opportunity to a young
man of talent and ambition.
An incumbent of this office must now
be confirmed by the senate. Just before
President McKinley's first term the
title of the office was changed from
private secretary" to secretary"
MIR. Secretary" the same form of ad-
dress applied to cabinet members, is
employed by White House visitors who
greet Mr.. Loeb-at least by those
versed in official etiquette.
To preside over one Of the busiest
offices in the country IS no small task,
but Mr.. Loeb had watched the routine
OF the office for many months before
he took the position vacated by Mr..
COrtelyou. a perfectly clean desk

New Cup defender Is Perfect.

The new cup defender is the most
scientifically built racing yacht ever
constructed. 1t is the acme of per-
lection and is expected to prove a
world-beater. The acme of Perfec-
ton in medicine was reached a half
century ago, when Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters was first introduced to
the public. Its wonderful success
during those years stamps it as "a
world-beater, especially in curing
such ailments as sick headache, belch-
ing, fiatulency, loss of appetite. indi-
gestion, dyspepsia, liver and kidney
troubles, or malaria, fever and ague.
A trial is all that is necessary to con-
vince you of its value. We know you'll
be satisfied with the result and thank
full for taking our advice. 1t can't
disappoint you, because it is especi-
ally compounded for such ailments.
Try it today.

HAY FEVER ABOLISHED,
Relief For this Malady Discovered by
Medical scIence-Breathe HyomeI.

Among the important additions
made to medical science in recent
years, none is more notable than
the positive announcement of a cure
for hay fever.
While this disease is not regarded
as fatal. il is certainly most dis
tressing malady, and if anything can
be devised to cure it. good boon
will be conferred upon the human
race.
Exhaustive experiments with HYO-
mel prove that this treatment will
prevent all attacks of hay fever if
used two or three week before the
annual appearance of the disease has
begun, to relieve at once and afford a
speedy cure.
TIL. Thomas has sold hundreds of
Hyomei outfits for the treatment of
this disease of the respiratory organs
under the agreement to refund the
money if Hyomei die not afford re-
lief
In selling Hyomei for the cure of
hay fever he will continue this equit-
able plan, and wants all who are sub
iect to this distressing malady to be-
gin its use at once, with the under
standing that if it does not give sat
isfaction, the purchase price is to be
refunded.
Stomach dosing cannot cure hay
fever. y change of climate is the only
treatment that has heretofore abort
ed an attack, and Hyomei, which is
breathed through neat pocket in
haler coming with every outfit, acts
upon this principle, giving in our own
home a climate like that of the White
Mountains or other health resorts.

awaited him when he assumed Office.
Such had been the perfect executive
ability of Secretary Cortelyou that no
unfinished business was carried for
ward.
At present Secretary Loeb, with his
corps of assistants. is at Oyster Bay
In the executive offices fitted up in the
Moore block, but when in Washington
he occupies the new office in the much
criticised White House annex. He sits
at a broad, fiat topped mahogany desk
and faces the door through which all
visitors enter. At his right hand is u
smaller desk occupied by Assistant
Secretary Barnes. On his left is a
large room filed with clerks and ste
nographers, and on his right is a door
leading TO the presidents private office.
Tact and a wide acquaintance with
men of affairs are the keynotes of Sec
rotary Loeb's success. He is not col
lege man and began his career as
messenger boy at twelve, but later re-
eeived Il high school education and a
thorough training in stenography. He
is native of Albany, n. Y, is of Ger
man parentage and early developed a
taste for politics. He was secretary of
the Republican county committee when
scarcely more than youth and an Of
ficer of a local Republican club.
When only twenty-five Che is now
thirty-six) Mr.. Loeb was elected OFF,
cial stenographer of the lower house
of the New York legislature, position
which demanded great skill and was
sraught with many responsibilities for
L: Ho aed no
work with entire satisfaction.
During the first few months of Mr..
Roosevelt's administration as governor
Of New York, Mr.. Loeb served as one
Of the four executive stenographers.
He soon attracted the attention of his
chief, who promoted him to the post
Of private and confidential secretary.
Since then Mr.. Loeb has been in close
touch with Mr.. Roosevelt. Mr.. Loeb
was married in December, 1902, to
Miss Katharine Dorr of Albany.
Two men besides Secretary Cortelyou
have found the Office of secretary to
the president a stepping stone to the
cabinet These are John Hay, the
present secretary of state, who was
EincoIn's secretary, and Daniel S. La
mont, secretary of war during Cleve-
lands second administration.
Prior to President Buchanan's adj
ministration each president had to fur
nish his own secretary and pay for
such service out of his own pocket
But the work of the presidential office
was nothing in those times as COM
pared with what it is now. No books
were kept, and all official letters were
answered in the executive depart I
ments. -
