What reading level is The Upbringing of Daughters book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If twelve shillings a week per head be allowed for food, an amount which allows for great freedom of choice and considerable luxury at the table, the number of servants, indoors and outdoors, required to cope with MONEY MATTERS 169 a family of six people may be taken as seven. Food will then cost about eight pounds a week, or four hundred pounds a year, pointing to an annual expenditure of 1600. Families consuming food at a cost of one pound per head a week will probably require at least ten ot...her persons to minister to them, making a household of sixteen persons. The annual outlay on food will amount to 800, and the total expenses will probably exceed 3000. These figures enable us to calculate the probable cost of any establish- ment based on the character of the food consumed within it, and give a very useful means of estimating expenses, checking increases, or planning a less expensive mode of housekeeping. It will be noticed, however, that the amount spent is the item involved, not the total income, so that any provision for saving or life insurance, if con- sidered necessary, must be dealt with separately with reference to the total net receipts and the relative pro- portions of earned income and income derived from capital.
