The Telephone Ear.

1t is somewhat strange that the new
malady which has appeared in the Amer
lean telephone exchanges is most prevalent
in California, while being almost entirely
unknown in the eastern states. The fa-
tiguc of listening continually at the re-
ccivcr produces humming In the cars,
headache, and, finally, absccss of the tym-
panum. Tho employed has to rest every
three or four hours, and sometimes to
cease work altogether for somo days 1t is
not yet explained whether the affection is
due to defective apparatus or to ovcrwork
Further light on this subject Is especially
desirable, rs it may give most valuable
suggestions to Gurists who are now treat
ing certain ear affections by sound yibra-
tions produced through the telephone. The
idea is favored by SOME leading practition-
ers that in many cases abnormal tissues
can be stimulated 10 healthy activity by
the concentration upon them of vibrations
of exactly suitable pitch and strength. In
many of the best equipped telephone cx
changes IL clever provision has been mado
for reducing the ear fatigue of the operator
by the Use of snail electric lamp, which,
working III the call wires, indicates
through" and so obviatcs the voice calls,
which are sometimes so irritating to the
subscriber rs we'll rs wearing on the "cen-
trail by their inevitable repetition. Phil
