What reading level is Old Highways in China book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The religious festivals are not interfered with after the twenty-seven days of deep mourning have expired.
In going through the main street of Tso Chow, I was greatly interested by what the shopkeepers do to beautify the various devices by which they make known what they have for sale. A large tobacco pipe, elabo- rately carved and gilded, reposing in a gigantic satin- lined pipe-case, proclaims the tobacconist. A gilded boot needs no explanation. The money-changer tells his trade in strings of... burnished ' cash,' pendant at either side of his shop. The mortar and pestle of our ao2 CHINESE PA WNSHOPS.
apothecary in England are represented by a brass can- ister with an ornamental lid, which the ' raedicine man ' displays. The three golden balls of Britain, upon which we look as the emblem of pawnbroking, are represented by a large black character on a white ground. The Chinese character tang is quite a handsome one. When anything special is going on in a shop, such as an auc- tion, the proprietor places outside his door a tall pole of THE CHINESE OHABACTEK ' TANG,' THE PAWNBROKER'S SIGN.
