A Remarkable Telephone Invention.

A Remarkable Telephone Invention.
Nature describes, under the name of
the -phonophOre," a remarkable tele-
phonic invention about to be introduced
to public notice by Mr.. Langdon Davies.
The name Is given TO a contrivance
which, while absolutely a non-conductor
of continuous electric currents, still al
lows of the passage or transmission of
rapidly alternating currents such as cor
respond to sounds in vocal and harmonic
telephony. The ~"phonophore" consists
essentially of two insulated wires laid
side by side, twisted together and wound
up upon "a bobbin, one end of each wire
being completely insulated. Regarded
as a condenser, its capacity is very fee
BILE indeed. Regarded as an induction
coil neither the primary nor the second
airy forms a closed circuit. Yet it trans
mits telephone speech perfectly. 1t fol-
lows that Mr.. Davies has solved the
problem of telephoning on an open cir
cult.
But the real object of the invention is
to enable telephone messages, including
both vocal and harmonic under that
name, to be transmitted through the
ordinary telegraph wires without inter-
ference with or from the Geographic
messages that are simultaneously passing
through the wires. Mr.. Davies has de-
vised a whole series of new telephone
apparatus in which not only the Undue
tion-coils of the transmitters but also the
bobbins of the receivers are replaced by
open-circuit p~honophone coils. Apart
from its purely technical value, the new
instrument presents several points of
great scientific interest, and opens up
sundry new problems to the mathemati-
cal physicist. Scientific Journal.
