''CROSS-TALK" ON TELEPHONE
May Be Due to Disturbance Arising
From Electromagnetic or Electro.
Static Induction.

The following definitions of cross
talk, overhearing and secrecy given
in the Scientific American were
framed by the Telephone Manufac-
turers' association, and approved by
the Institution of Electrical Engi-
neers of Great Britain:
Cross-talk in telephone systems is
the unintentional overhearing be-
tween one circuit and another not
due to any metallic connection as
arises from accident or is effected
by a user or third party. In prac-
tice the cross-talk may be due to
disturbance arising from electro
magnetic or electro-static induction,
to leakage, or to insufficient conduc-
lance, in a common portion of cir
cults. Secrecy in telephone systems
is secured by an arrangement of cir
cults making it impossible for a
third party by any normal use of
the system to cut in and listen to
the conversation taking place be-
tween two users, at any rate, with
out the knowledge of the parties con-
versing.

MOISTENlNG AIR OF FURNACE
Problem Believed Solved by Invention
Lately Patented, and for Years
Sought by Mechanics.

Moistening the air from furnace
Is problem that has taxed the inge-
nuity of many inventors, and their
failure to solve it has made business
tor every throat and nose specialist
In the country. What looks on the
face of it like a solution of the prob
lem, however, is contained in the an
nouncement of the Patent Office Ga
sette that a patent has been granted
to George W. Howes of Dowagiac,
Mich, on a hunidifier for hot-air
furnaces, according to an exchange.
This comprises hot-air chamber
with water pan mounted inside it,
pipes from the house water supply
system running into it and ball
cock attachment, similar to that in
cisterns, by which the flow of water
is regulated and kept at the same
level.
This assures the absorption of
moisture by the air in the furnace
before it is driven out through the
pipes into the house.
There is also spray attachment
which carries any overflow of water
into the ash pit. The latter is made
dust proof, SO that the ashes can be
taken out damp without scattering
them through the air, as usually hap
pens when they are removed.
The water supply apparatus has
attachments by means of which its
flow can be regulated by hand or
shut off entirely independently of
the automatic valves.
