To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The principle of the invention is to feed grouse, partridges, hares, rabbits, and other birds and beasts of sport with loadstone powder, which in the course of a short time will impregnate their blood and render them highly magnetic. Then by using steel shot, the animals are sure to be killed, without the trouble of taking an aim, as their magnetism will attract the steel, even round a corner. " " Such an invention may be all very good for sportsmen, " I remarked, "but poachers would take advan...tage of it, and it occurs to me that the game would very soon be exterminated. " "Possibly, " said the Professor, " but a bit of money could be made of the invention before that time comes. " I felt shocked at such mercenary ideas, but not wishing to give offence, started on a fresh topic. " You are aware, Professor, that at this moment the whole civilised world eagerly demands the solution of certain problems, and I would impress upon you the necessity of laying the result of your indefatigable researches and the products of your comprehensive mind at the feet of society.
