To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He hesitated to take it on account of its evil associations, but he had no choice. He chanced it, and he proved to be the one passenger whose life was saved from the wreck. If anything could redeem number thir- teen from its associations, surely it would be that experi- ence. But the fact is already forgotten. It has not been assimilated by the public mind, and in the future, as in the past, thirteen will be regarded as an unfortunate number. That such superstitions are wholly gratuitous or un-... founded I am not prepared to say. If you are thoroughly convinced of the presence of some evil influence in your life, the conviction is bound to exercise a depressing effect upon your system, and perhaps in time bring about the very mischief predicted. This would be an example of the force of 'suggestion, ' the importance of which no psychologist now denies. By the same means is explained the influence of spells and charms of all sorts, good and bad. The ' evil eye ' does, in fact, do harm to those who believe themselves to be under its power.
