Puzzles in Ancient History.

The first is called SyNogiSmuS C,Ocodilus,
and may be stated thus An infant while
playing on the bank Of river, was seized by
crocodile. The mother, hearing its cries,
rushed to its assistance. and by her fearful
entreaties, obtained promise from the croco-
die, who was obviously of the highest intelli-
gence, that he would give it her back, if she
would tell him truly what would happen to
It,. On this the mother, perhaps rashly asser-
ted. "You will not give it back The croco-
ollie answers to this: IF you have spoken
truly, cannot give back the child without de-
stroylng the truth of your assertion; if you
have spoken falsely, cannot give back the
child because you have not fulfilled YOUR
agreement. Therefore, cannot give it back
whether you have spoken truly or falsely. -
The mother retorted fl have spoken truly
you must give back the child by virtue of
your agreement; if have spoken falsely. that
can only be when you have given back the
child. 80 that whether | have spoken truly
or falsely, the child must be given back" His
tory Is silent as to the issue of this remarkable
dispute.
VI similar nature is the other example
above mentioned, which is even more acutely
stated. A young man named Euathlus re-
celved lessons IN rhetoric from Protagoras, it
being agreed that a certain fee should be paid
If the pupil was successful in the first cause
he pleaded. Euathlus neglected to undertake
any cause, and Protagoras, in order to obtain
his fee. was compelled to sue him. Euathlus
defended himself in court, and it was conse-
quently the young mans first suit. The mas
ter argued thus:
eff I be successful in this cause, Euathlus,
you will be compelled to pay. by virtue of
the sentence Of these righteous judges; and
should l even be unsuccessful, you will then
have to pay me in fulflment of your original
contract. 10 this the apt pupil replied "1f
I be successful, 0, master, shall be- free by
the sentence of these judges; and if l be un-
successful, shall be free by virtue of our
contract" The story states such convincing
arguments, thus Numerically opposed, COM
pletely staggered the judges, who, being quite
unable to decide, postponed the Judgment
