(The New York Herald)
George Randolph Chester, who
died Tuesday, was one of the most
successful practitioners of that busi
ness school fiction which is native
to the United States. The creator
of Get-Rich-Quick Wallingford sto
ries discovered early that a large
part of the public likes to read fic
tion that dramatizes the hours be
tween 9 in the morning and 5 in the
afternoon.
In Mr. Chester's case it happened
that the character for whom he
found the widest audience was a ras
cal, a promoted of questionable ac
tivities, who was also generous and
human, as rascals often are. But
the business school of fiction does not
continue its portraiture to rogues.
Not a little of its energy is given to
recounting the rise to fortune of the
exemplary young man.
It is this type of fiction which has
worked in the popular mind to pic
ture the salesman as the romantic
figure. When he appeared in the sto
Weak
Nervous
"I was weak and nervous
and run-down," writes Mrs.
Edith Sellers, of 466 N. 21st
St., East St. Louis, 111. "I
couldn't sleep nights, I was so
restless. I felt tired and not
in condition to do my work.
I would have such pains in
my stomach that I was afraid
I would get down in bed. . .
My mother came to see me
and suggested that I use
I felt better after my first
bottle. I had a better appe
tite. It seemed to strengthen
and build me up. I am so
glad to recommend Cardui
for what it did for me. I
haven't needed any medicine
since I took Cardui, and I am
feeling fine."
Nervousness, restlessness,
sleeplessness—t h e s e symp
toms so often are the result
of a weak, run-down condi
tion, and may develop more
seriously if not treated in
time.
If you are nervous and
run-down, or suffering from
some womanly weakness,
take Cardui.

jfies of an earlier period it was

weSe the exception in that they did

has always been a favorite ingredient
of the story tellers from the first
days of the novel, and Wallingford
I merely happened to be a rascal in

business story—and there really is
no other business story—glorifies
virtue, and particularly virtue as
leading to success. j
Its literary quality as a rule has
not been high. It has b^en and con
tinues to be read because it recog
nizes that the chief interests of the }
average American are his business !
and his family, the two are easily in- j
tertwined in the business story. Base- j

third interest, has its own story type;
