Chinese Jade.

Jade, known In India as "The
Divine Stone" is becoming more pop
uiar as a luck bringer According to
old legends, jade has always been a
very precious stone, and in Thina and
India is said to possess charm
against evil. In India 1t is worn as an
amulet to preserve the wearer from
the bites of venomous animals. The
chinese jade is the most precious Of
all and very difficult to obtain, as the
Chinese do not export much of it. This
may be due TO its rarity, but more
probably 1t is because the stone, which
they call "Quintessence of Heaven" :"
rs considered too precious to send out
OF the country because of the charm
attached TO it. There are many other
kinds of jade and they can be bought
for very reasonable sums, but moth
ing can equal the Chinese stone for
color and transparency.
