To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He was gazing off into space in an absent-minded kind of way, apparently not aware that anything was wrong with him; and on all sides he was surrounded by interesting exhibits, such as a crab, and a scorpion, and a goat, and a [51] "Speaking of Operations " chap with a bow and arrow and one thing and another. Such was the main design of the cover, while the contents were made up of rec- ognized and standard varieties in the line of jokes and the line of diseases which al- ternated, with first a... favorite joke and then a favorite disease. The author who wrote the descriptions of the diseases was one of the most convincing writers that ever lived anywhere. As a realist he had no superiors among those using our language as a vehicle for the expression of thought. He was a wonder. If a person wasn't particu- lar about what ailed him he could read any page at random and have one specific disease. Or he could read the whole book through and have them all, in their most advanced stages. Then the only thing that could save him was a large dollar bottle.
