SYMFATHY IS SHOWN BY ANTS
Naturalist TcMs Hew They Set Free
Their Fellows When He
imprisoned Them
An eminent n;iti::!l'st. while watch

them to secure it. The next that ap
proached, fn discovering the situation
of Its associate, ran back in an excited,
manner and communicated with the
others, when all rushed to the rescue.
Some bit at the stone and tried to
move it, others seized the prisoner by
the lefrs and tugged with a force which
..threatened to separnte them from its
body ; but they persevered until they
got the captive free.
Interested by this evidence of intel

of the ants with a piece of leav

fellowsjyho set to wor V -'yr iiavrly

of these was confined under a piece of
clay a little distance from the trail,
with its head projecting. Several ants
went by without seeing it, but at last
