MOVING PICTURES THAT TALK

The "chronomegaphone" is the scientific name given to a new apparatus invented by M. Leon Gaumont, of Paris. A moving picture is thrown on the screen, and as the figures move the chronomegaphone gives them a speech. We thus get a combination of cinematograph and phonograph.
