The linear development of a pulse as it propagates adiabatically along an isothermal magnetic flux tube embedded in a gravitationally stratified atmosphere is studied. It is shown that, for a quiescent environment, longitudinal disturbances in the tube are governed by an equation of the Klein-Gordon type. An impulsively generated disturbance results in a wave front propagating at the subsonic and subAlfvenic tube speed; the wave front trails a wake oscillating at the tube frequency. The results are illustrated for solar photospheric conditiions.
