To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The newly joined assistant will usually find it advantageous to gain some experience of working in a strange country in single harness before experiment- ing in double harness. The pecuniary attractions of the Service lie, not in the rates of salary during an officer's early years, which are extremely moderate, but in the certainty of a good in- come after fifteen or twenty years' service, the assurance of a decent pension after twenty- five years, and the practical certainty of high and lucrat...ive appointments for all officers who are able to hold on and avoid premature retirement. Although, as a matter of business, it has been necessary to spend some time in ex- plaining the exact nature of the pecuniary inducements offered by the career of an Indian civilian, I should be sorry if I could not As a Profession 25 recommend the Indian Civil Service to spirited young Irishmen on higher grounds. I venture to recommend it, not merely be- cause, on the whole, it pays much better than most professions, but because it offers to an able and ambitious young man an honour- able and manly career, giving full scope for the exercise of the strongest character and the highest intellectual power, and holding out promise of eminent distinction.
