To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I find that in most of these German cities, with their scores of noble public monuments, the public administration has received aid, in procuring such ornaments for the municipality, from generous individuals and societies. These men delight thus to honor the city in which they dwell. They are glad to associate their names honorably with fine, costly gifts out of their plenty to enrich the lives of their less fortunate neighbors. This is especially true of Bremen, my favorite among the German c...ities. In this city is a savings insti- tution (concerning which Mr. Fee, our consul, has lately sent an in- teresting report to the American state department), which expends its surplus earnings, above 5 per cent, in aiding the city-state to erect needed public service institutions, such as the big public bath house, schools, etc. The directors of this huge bank, with deposits of more than forty-five million dollars, receive no payment for their services; the business, under their gratuitous supervision, is conducted by sal- aried managers, with the sole aim to encourage saving by the working people of the city, and to provide a fund, from the surplus earnings, with which to help the city procure benefits for the people which it could not obtain from its own revenues.
