Show Telephone Hears Whispers Best. Tho secrephono Is tho whispering telephone. A message can be whispered whis-pered into It so that a person standing but a yard away cannot hear what is being said, while every word is correctly cor-rectly transmitted to tho receiver at the other end of tho lino a mile away or more. For this to bo done the mes- sago must bo actually whispered. If spoken more loudly, of course, tho speaker can bo heard moro than a yard away from tho transmitting instrument. in-strument. Properly used, however, a message can bo sent in privacy oven with people quite close. As present experience goes it requires re-quires somo littlo practice to pitch tho volco correctly so as to got the best results re-sults with tho faintest whisper. But tho lesson Is not difficult to learn. People with high-pitched voices will undoubtedly make themselves heard more distinctly at tho other end of the t-". line with less noise at tho transmitting transmit-ting end than Is possible for those with lower-pitched voices. Tho Instrument Is claimed to bo practically imperishable imperish-able and cannot get out of order with ordinary use. |
