Rather than a critical examination, is what constitutes primi- tive reflection, and makes of primitive science a realm of fairy-stories. But such a simple, idle, unreflective curiosity gives nothing of that baffling of hypothesis which makes for maiwelling. Thus. Too. The imaginative activity itself eventuates in absolute belief, rather than in wonder. Living in a narrow consciousness, where the fujictions of association completely dominate the mind, the inner pres- entations of his imagination... are received by the savage with the same feeling of reality with which he greets the objects in his external world. "Beholding the reflection of his own mind like a child looking at itself in the glass, he hujnbly receives the teaching of his second self. " — Finally, magic, so far from being wonderful, is the primitive's science, and his implicit belief in it is as destructive to the marvellous in magic as the implicitness of his belief in spirits Ls incom- patable with the marvellous in spiritism or animism.
