T«tal Amount, £4000. jg» 320 MONEY PRIZES. -8» The grand principle of tkese Hamburg Drawings is that a purchaser of 25 Programmes is guaranteed a Prize, and the chances are in favor of the investor drawing a large prize, as there are 220 large prizes to 100 small ones. To an Investsr 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 an investor of 10s. # % Read this carefnlly. In Boaz's Grand Hamburg Drawings the greatest odds are only 25 to 1 against an investor of 10s drawprize But carefully note the enormous ' odds against investors drawing a Horse or Cash Piize in any of the Herse Consultations. The marbles replaced for each drawing of the Cash Prizes, which gives the enormous odds against investors. This Company would simply s&k investors to calculate the •dds before placing their investments in any horse consultation ; 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 Sixth Grand Drawing for L4OOO will take place under the supervision of a committee of eight gentlemen, and the prizes will u*s paid over as early as possible after the ■Ira wing. NOTICE.
