The grand principle of these Hamburg Drawings is that a. purchaser of 25 Programmes is guaranteed a Prize, and the chances are in favour of the investor drawing a large prize, as there are 220 large prizes to 100 small ones. To an investor of L2 the chances are only 6 to 1 against him drawing a prize,.and the Head Prize or any other may be drawn by an investor of 10s. Read this. — In 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 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 ant’ hors" consultations : and this Company would not presume to tell tin- public that they have a - number of chances ami may win a number of prizes for a .single investment of’ '1 os. NOTE.— Prize Winners, whether ‘winning large or small prizes, tire informed that th’eir names will not be made public without their wiittcn consent. This course will ho 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 Seventh Grand Drawing for L4OOO will take place under the .supervision of a committee of eight gentlemen, and the prizes will be, paid over as early as possible after the drawing.
