cannot well be overestimated. In
its immense flow ol waters, its grand
scenery and its historic lore, the
Niagara is one of the most renowned ,
rivers ol ine world. Its gnat ca
taract has defied the descriptive
luiwuro hi till! nofls and nliiln-onli-
i i r i

of painters and photogni pliers, The
grandeur of tbeenviromneiil renders ;
the Palls iK'rennially interesting at
all seasons ol the year and very lew
ol .hose who visit the Pan-American
Bximsition but de-ire also to visit
them. The trip from Buffalo can
be made iu half an hour. Thele
are many points ol view and places
interest and the visitor can plan his
itinerary according to the leisure
timeat his disposal. If time will
permit, the cataract should he view

On the American side there aregreat
corporations utilizing the current of
