constructed a number of small sheepskia.
drumheads to test their value as diaphragms
compared wibh mental and other substances.
"To some of these sheepskin diaphragms
he had attached 5small metalneedle, which
was intended to project toward the magnet
and assist in conveying the vibrations caused
by the human yoke. The sheepskin dia-
phragms did not fulfill Edison's expectations
and he discarded them and, as usual with
appliances he decides be be useless, they were
thrown mide to be removed with other rub.

• "His assistants soon discovered that by
holding the sheepskin diaphragms in front
of their mouths and emitting a guttural
sound between the lips a peculiar noise ap
oroaching musie could be produced. It WKS
something •similar to the alleged music pro
ducted by ooveing a comb with thin paper
and humming a tune on it. In pasing one
of the men mimed in plegriny on a diaphragm
one day Edison playfully attempted to stop
the noise by boucbing the projecting metal
pin with hie finger, and no sooner lied he
done so than he gave one of his peculiar
starts. 'Eh. 1 What's:: that ?' said he, which
so aetoniehed the performer. that he dropped
the diaphragm. 'Do that again,' said the
'Wizard,' and it was repeated, and again his
finger touched the pin, to his evident delight.
He went about tor aome time asking one

first phonograph was pm together. It was
a wade affair, the pin making on impression

well enough to &ow Edison that he was on
the right track, and he rapidly improved it
until now it is very nearly perfection. A
hundred inesi might have felt the vibration
of that lain attached to the piece of sheep-
skin, brie it took an Edieon to inetantiy real-
ize that the vibretions might be made to in
dent a soft substance and be susceptible of
reproducing the exact sounds of the human
Voice that ovutied the different vibrations.
The phonograph was regarded as a toy at
