JADE AS : MEDICINE.
Used as Remedy for Many Complaints i
by Chinese PhysicIans. ? '
Everything in China , of any rar-
ity is quite certain to be dragged
into the pharmacopoeia of the :
Chinese . Jade is
phJsician. one ex : I
'ption to the rule , says Pr < ? f. Herbert .
bert A. Giles , in the Nineteenth '
Oentury. It may be swallowed asa
a powder , or in little pieces thp
size of hemp seed , for various
stomaehic complaints ; even pock-
marks and scars may be obliter-
ated by being daily rubbed with a '
piece of pure jade. It is also considered -
sidered to be of a very moist na- . '
tllre , and we read of an imperial 1 '
favorite of the eighth century who ;
was cured of excessive thirst by
holding a fish shaped jade in het'
mouth. And so when the tomb of
the great commander , Ts'ao Ts'ao ,
third century , A. I ) . , was opened
200 rears : after his death , among
the usual objects found in such circumstances -
cumstances was a large silver
bowl full of water. That the wa-
ter had not dried up was accounted -
ed for by the presence in the bowl
of a jade boy three feet in heig'ht.
Jade is chiefly brought from the
K'un.lun ' between
, 01' Koulgun , range , -
tween the Desert of Gobi and Thi-
bet ; from Khoten 01' Ilchi in Yar-
. . t
knnd , and from IJfin-t'ien on the }
Belurtagh mountains , still fur-
ther to the west. This Lan-t'ien
has been confused by the Chinese
writers with another I.Jan.t'ien , in
the Province of Shen-Se , near time .
city Qf Rsi-an , whither the Chinese
court fled in August , 1900 , upon
the relief of Peldng. In the tenth
century A. D. , the latter was ac
tually known as the Jade Rillp
district , though it does not apJeal'I )
that any jade bas ever been found ] . , , '
there. , , (
