To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The stateliness of a superior Chinese, as he swaggers down the street in costly brocades, is unattainable by any barbarian from the West, in his skimpy clothes that the Chinese consider immodest, outlining as they do the whole shape of the figure. Self-esteem may almost be said to be a Chinese characteristic free from qualifications. The best ladies' tailor in Shanghai thought himself equal to Paquin, and did not hesitate to pick and choose among his customers, working only for those whom he th...ought would do him credit. Anemone declined to be judged by him like a horse, as she expressed it, and patronised a humbler individual. He did not work for her for long, as they had some disagreement over payment. Anemone, wishing to be just, finally consented to give him the extra sum he demanded, but because he had not been paid at once, he now declined to take it. He must " save his face, " that was even more important than saving the money. He must also discontinue his services to Anemone. " My too muchee 'flaid, " he said reproach- fully.
