CD Niagara loses in spectacular effective
ness and in suggesting to the eye its
vast volume by sending nine-tenths oil

the eye is concerned depth of three OF

is as effective as depth of forty feet
And the eyes does not follow the contour
in measuring a horseshoe-shaped fall,
but gives credit only for the distance IN

horseshoe.
Victoria loses in effect from the fact
that when it is at it's greatest in volume

and surrounds itself with spray that II
