Ant brains and a tale of unexpected aid

An exploration of ant intelligence contrasts with a vivid human anecdote about a ruined bettor seeking food. A Baltimore American clipping notes ants show reasoning and judgment, then recounts a despairing man who finds a twenty five cent coin in his vest pocket, shouting for help from an unexpected quarter. It also recounts Chas Godfrey Leland hosting Snick erbocker receptions and a sharp remark on religion by intelligent persons.
