CIDE DICTIONARY

contrariesn. pl. [Pl. of Contrary, n.].
     Propositions which directly and destructively contradict each other, but of which the falsehood of one does not establish the truth of the other.  [1913 Webster]
    "If two universals differ in quality, they are contraries; as, every vine is a tree; no vine is a tree. These can never be both true together; but they may be both false."  [1913 Webster]
