To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Cloth- makers have found that no invention can supersede the natural teasel-head for raising a nap on woollen cloth. These heads are therefore an extensive article of commerce, the plant being largely cultivated for this purpose in the west of England, in France, Germany, Italy, and else- where. Many thousands are imported every year, and any one who is familiar with any of the centres of the clothing industry, will remember seeing the waggon-loads of teasel-heads going through the streets to t...he different factories. The heads are cut as soon as the flowers wither, about eight inches of stem remaining attached to them, and they are then dried, and sorted into qualities. The great utility of the teasel-head is that it gives the neces- sary nap, but breaks at any serious obstruction, while all metallic substances in such a case expect the cloth to yield first, and therefore tear the material. TUBEROUS MOSCHATEL. Adoxa, moschatellina. Nat. Ord. , Araliaeete. MONGST the more conspicuous floral treasures of each re- curring spring, the delicate little blossom we have here figured runs a considerable risk of being overlooked.
