CURIosTTTEs OF THE TELEPHONE
With a single telephone held, say, to
the right ear, the transmitted voice
appears to come form a distance to the
right; while with telephone held to
the left ear, it seems TO arrive from
the left of the listener. With a tele.
phone to each ear, if one ear be less
sensitive than the other, or if the tel.
ephone be held further from that ear,
the voice apparently shifts to the side
Of the other ear; and if both instru-
ments are equally near their respect
i've ears, the voice apparently proceeds
from the front of the observer.
