What reading level is The Practice of Typography Correct Composition a Treatise On Spelling Abbrevi book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In these forms of composition the period is not needed to indicate the end of the sentence. As it is the feeblest of all the points, and least able to withstand wear, it should not be needlessly placed in any exposed position.
THE DASH The dash is sometimes substituted for nearly all the other points. It was once used as the ^H proper mark to indicate suppressed words. Sometimes it serves as a ditto-mark in catalogue work. It is employed to connect a side-heading with the text that follows, or ...to connect the end of that text with the name of the writer. Writers who do not clearly know what point is needed always make the dash serve as its acceptable equivalent. It has been so much overworked that one author has called for its abolition.
Those who have thought proper, like Mr. Lindley Murray, to place the dash amongst the grammatical points, ought to give us some rule relative to its different longitudinal dimensions in different cases. The inch, the three-quarter-inch, the half-inch, the quarter-inch ; these would be something determi- 270 Examples showing need of dashes nate ; but, ' the dash, 1 without measure, must be a most perilous thing for a young grammarian to handle.
