81 was wandering around a town
in the interior Of China, looking for
Some Chinese curios, when 1 came
upon a little shop very near the
temple. which was the reason for the
town. There 1 found an old man
who spoke no English, and whose
Chinese was one of those queer dia-
lects of which China is full. He was
very courteous, ard we looked all
over his shop. but 1 found nothing
that amused me.
"At last he went to a desk and
in a hidden drawer he found this
piece of jade. 1 gathered from what
he said that it was not for sale, but
that he wanted to show it to me.
"As soon as 1 knew this gem was
not for sale, found myself wanting
it as 1 have never wanted anything

one of the few Americans who speak

could not make out what the reason

fuls of gold coin to tempt the old
man, but he shook his head. Final

broke down his objections, and he
let me have it on the condition that
if he ever got hold Of the man statue
he would let me know and 1 was to
come from any place on earth and
