Read this carefully. —ln Boaz’s Grand Hamburg Drawings the greatest odds are only 25 to 1 against an investor of 10s drawing a prize. But carefully note the enormous odds against investors drawing a hoise or cash prize in any of the horse consultations. The marbles are replaced for each drawing' or the cash prizes, which gives the enormous odds against investors. This Company would simply ask investors to calculate the odds before placing their investments in any horse consultations; and this Company would not presume to tell the public that they have a number of chances and can win a number of prizes for a single investment of 10s. Note.—Prize winners whether winning large or small prizes are informed that their names will not be made public without their written consent. This course will be pursued in consequence of the company having received many letters at various times from prize winners, particularly requesting the company not on any account to make their names public. This 7th grand drawing for £4,000 will take place under the super vision of a committee of eight gentlemen, and the prizes will be paid over as early as possible after the drawing.
