Photography Of Words.

Devaux-C harbonnel, the French
scientist, has photographed the varia-
ton Of current in a microphonic cir
cult by the aid of a Blondal o~scillo-
graph. The photographs are repro.
auctions of the syllables pronounced
by a human voice, and it is expected
that they will be of use in the solu-
ton of various problems in telephony,
In studying the impression made by
syllables the experimenter found that
each syllable is composed of 80 to 40
complete vibrations. The beginning and
the end Of the syllables are modified
by the impressions of the co%nsonants,
but the notifications cover only four
or five periods, so that each syllable
has 20 to 80 regular vibrations cores
ponding to its vowel. The method
permits the study of the higher har-
monies, which give character to words.
