Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of American Folk-Lore, Vol. 14 There are two possible explanations of the different manifesta tions of the mind of man. It may be that the minds of different races show differences of organization; that is to say, the laws of mental activity may not be the same for all minds. But it may also be that the organization of mind is practically identical among all races of man; that mental activity follows the same laws every where, but that its manifestations depend upon the character of individual experience that is subjected to the action of these laws.
