To the Purchaser of 25 Programmes one will be given Gratis. From the undoubted popularity and great success these drawings have obtained throughout New Zealand the promoters are enabled to bring them before the public every two months. There is also the fact that all these drawings have filled some time before the advertised date of closing, which has enabled the Company to pay the prizes in full. The Eighth Grand Drawing for £4OOO will close the end of April, and the Ninth Hamburg Drawing will Open on the Ist May. The Eighth Grand Drawing will consist of 320 Money Prizes, amounting to £4OOO, subscribed by 8000 members, at 10s each. The various Money Prizes will be distributed as follows : 1 L3OO PRIZE 15 L 25 PRIZES 1 L2OO PRIZE 15 L2O PRIZES 1 LIOO PRIZE 15 Ll 5 PRIZES 2 LSO PRIZES 160 LlO PRIZES 10 L3O PRIZES 100 L 5 PRIZES Total amount, L4OOO. 320 Money Prizes. To a Purchaser of 25 Programmes one will be given Gratis. The grand priuciple of these Hamburg Drawiugs 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 ate 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.—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 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 may win a number of prizes for a single investment of 10s. NOTE. —Prize Winners, whether winuing large or small prizes, are informed that their names will not be made public without their written consent. This Eighth Grand Drawing for L4OOO will take place under the supervision of a committee of eight subscribers, and the prizes will be paid over as early as possible aftev the drawing.
