What reading level is Missions to the Heathen book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If they do, blindness or some other blight is sure to befall. It is everybody's duty to give sharp warning if danger of a meet- ing arises. Even after reading of this in good authorities I could hardly believe that the custom still rigidly prevails. I found out for myself. A company of Indians was assembled m our mission hall while I preached to them through the inter- preter. With the exception of one or two young bucks, they were behaving with great decorum, when all of a sudden there were ex...clamations and a tremendous hubbub. I could not imagine the cause till I was told that a mother-in-law of one of my auditors approached the door. Instantly many shouted to warn the imperiled parties. The man within pulled a hat over his eyes, while she retreated. To avoid this constant menace a man sometimes marries the widowed mother of his prospective wife before marrying her. Then they are both his wives and there is no mother-in-law.
Their superstitions are complicated and rank. By them not only is progressive beauty of character rendered impossible, but life itself is often imperiled.
