the edictograph-conveys an inadequate idea
of it's character for it neither dictates nor
writes 1t is not a photographic recorder
nor is it a new sort of a gramophone. But
it resem bles the last in that it speaks with
a loud voice whenever somebody at the
other end of the ordinary telephone wire
addresses the transmitter. 1t is not neces-
sary to shout into it or at II. One may
stand at any distance, say fifteen feet
from the box, which is less than foot in
length.
This is all the apparatus visible. A
whisper will suffice. and that whisper will
pass. as an experiment has proved. through
a mans body and couple of cushions de-
liberately muff1ing the instrument. At the
other end OF the wire, which may be in a
totally different part of the same building
or 100 miles away, Stenographer provided
with an earpiece listens. and without strain
or effort can catch every word. even if
spoken under breath.
Provided with the dictograph a business
man may, without moving from his chair,
communicate with half a dozen or more
secretaries, in turn, each one in his or her
room. and all messages will be absolutely
private, passing through no exchange and
overheard by no one. The secretaries re-
ply to any questions asked and the replies
come with weird effect out of the mystert-
Gus box containing the highly sensitive re-
ceiVer. And, above all. the dictograph i'm
poses no tax on the voice. There is no
buzzins of the wires to distract attention
and one is not compelled to assume an un-
comfortable attitude or apply the ear to
anythihg at all. One simply talks naturally
or listens. as the case may be and the in
strument does the rest.
