El.e Telephone.


Professor Alexander Graham Bell Is
reported to have explained in Il lecture
how he came to invent the telephone
as follows:
My father invented Z symbol by
which deaf mIltcS could converse, ard
finally | invented an apparatus by
which the vibrations of speech could be
seen, anu it turned out to be :: tele-
phone. 1t occurred to me to make Il
machine that would cuu bic one to hear
vibrations. | Went to an :luriSt. and he
advised me to take the human ear as
my model. Tie supplied me With Il dead
mans ear. and with this car I expert
mcnted. and upon applying the appara-
t'lS l found that the dead mans car
wrote down the vibrations
II arrived ut the conclusion that il
could make iron vibratc on Il dead
mans ear | could make an instrument
more delicate which would cause those
vibrations to be heard and unticrsto God:
l thought If placed Il delicate piece Of
steel over an electric magnet l could
got 4 vibration. and thus the telephone
was completed.
'thc telephone arose from my at
tcmptS TO teach the deaf to speak. 1t
arose from my knowledge. not of cleo
