GREATER Than Solomon

According to Phoenician tradition.
Solomon was not the wisest man who
ever lived. The Phoenician claim is
that Abdemon of Tyre was not only
able to solve all the riddles proposed
by Solomon but gave the latter prob.
lens which the king Of Israel was un-
able to cope with. Solomon. so the
story goes, had worsted Hiram, king
of Tyre. in a battle forfeit To ylndl
cate the honor Of his country, Abdeman
entered the lists and won back all the
money Hiram had lost. and great
deal more.
