Talking by Mail.

That magnetism can be localized
is the discovery which forms the
basis of the remarkable invention
known as the telegraphone.
This machine performs five differ
ent functions. First, it receives die
tation; second, it reproduces the die
tation; third, 1t reproduces at dis
tant point, the machine being under
control at that point; fourth, it re-
cords conversations between two per-
sons over the commercial telephone
lines without in any way interfering
with the operation of those lines,
and, fifth, it records automatically,
In the absence of the subscriber
from the Office, messages coming
over the line during such absence.
The machine being under the abso-
| Lutte automatic control from the Or
binary performing function of the
telephone line, the ringing OF the
/ bell starts the machine, the machine
sends a signal over the line to the
party talking, notifying him that the
machine is running, taking down his
message and then automatically
stopping.
Many business transactions are
carried on daily over the telephone.
and the day is at hand when tele-
graphone records will be made of
each and every transaction and filed
laway for reference. The telgraphone

Mr.. Poulson, the inventor, has In
a later machine replaced the cylinder
for the recording wires by steel disks
about Az inches in diameter and
about 1-20 of an inch in thickness.
The portability of these disks, the
susceptibility of receiving records on
both sides, the instantaneous erasure
of records at will and the absolute
secrecy of the subject matter of the
record. leads one to believe it will
in the future be a means of inter
communication superior to letter
writing.
