The grand principle of these Hamburg Drawings is that a purchaser of 25 programes is guaranteed a prize, axd the chances are in favor of the investor drawing a large prize, as there are 220 _ large prizes to 100 small ones. To any investor of £2 the chances are only 6 to 1 against him drawing a prize, and the head prize or any other may be drawn by any investor of 10s. Read this carefully. —ln Boaz’s Grand Hamburg Drawings the greatest odds are only 25 to 1 against an investor of 10a drawing a prize. But carefully note the enormous odds against investors drawing I a horse or cash prize in any of the horse consultations. The marbles are replaced for each drawing of 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 supeivision of a committee of eight gentlemen, and the prizes will be paid over as early as possible after the drawing.
