TRANS-BAIKALIA TO MOSCOW 453 It is an impressive declaration of faith, and a magnifi-cent challenge to the powers of evil ; but, like morecivilized peoples, they can scarcely be said to live up to thestandard of it. As I have already mentioned, Shamanismdisguised still plays its part, and the traveller will comeacross select spots where the spirit of the wood or of thehills is propitiated by an array of rags fluttering in thebreeze. Even Buddhist and Shintoist Japan, with all itsmodern dressing, can supply many similar examples. Iremember in my wanderings in that country coming acrossa tiny altar to the deity of the forest, in the depth of awood. It contained offerings of two or three sen (farthings),and we left them for the deputy of the god, the poor countrypriest who should come from over the mountains. The local deities are indeed hard to give up. There isno knowing what they may do to you in revenge, and theres no harm done in hanging up a horse-shoe, even ifit doesnt bring good
