Talk Gently to the Telephone.

The transmitter. the instrument into which you speak in the telephone, is an exceedingly delicate one. Talk softly to it. Lnud speech ipiures its fue sd- iustment and impairs its articulation. Remember that it is to the trausmitter you are talking, not to the person at the other end. The receiver at his ear is whispering your words, which the wire is carrying in the form of an cleo trical current. Talk reasonably close to the trspsmitter, talk straight into it,snd be sure to speak low. h that way the best results are obtained
 The transmitter is in fact a mechani- cal ear, approximating in sensitiveness, as nearly as may be, it's prototype. the human ear. To scream into another'S ] ear not only causes him pain. but inn pairs his hearing That is exactly what happers to trsnsmitter when too great and too violent volume of sound is poured into it. Its hearing is impaired That which it imperfectly hears, it inn perfectly transmits. If the abuse con- tinues, it's hearing becomes more and m ore imperfect, aud at last it becomes deaf. Many transmitters in constant use, so the electricians Say, are "hsrd of hearing" simply because they have suffered from overload talk.
