Title

Horseshoe Falls by illumination, Niagara Falls

Description

en-CA Reverse reads "This new beauty of Niagara differs from the beauty that the Creator made working through inanimate life. For here, He worked through the inventive genius of man, and gave Niagara a new glory that can be turned on and off at the mere pressing of a switch-button, throwing on the billion candle power battery of electric searchlights which floodlights the Falls, the batteries being hidden in the foliage work invisibly and in no way mar the scenery with the imprint of man's hand. Nor does the conquest end here, for the searchlights at Niagara when sent upward into the sky, may be seen for seventy five miles away"
