BEING encouraged to promote the rapid and ea«*y accumulation of Money by the successful Qoatins; and drawing of her Grand Novel Con•SllltatiOJl. Fortuna has determined to place before the public another Investment — founded on the principle adopted m Berlin, where speculations ofiliis nature are under the special charge and guidance of the Stare. Foriuna has had au extended Continental experience of the- details of these undertakings, and she is convinced that the Prospectus she now offers to the public will be heartily responded to. This is an investment peculiarly uitable for ladies', who are generally precluded —by household duties — from indulging m the excitement of the .Racecourse, and are therefore not inclined to invest their money where the .success of a horse forms the main element m the amount of the prizes gained. The Shares for each Distribution will be limited to 5000, at/fen Shillings each. „.."•.-- -• Periodical allotments of these Investments will be made every Three Montis under the supervision of a Com/niittee. , The smns allotted will be m the proportion of one Allotment to every 25 Coupons, as follows, viz : — 1 Allotment of ... ... £500 1 „ i, 150 1 , * „ 100 3 Allotments of ... ... 50 .4 „ „• ... .;• 30 3. „ „ . ... ... 25 ■7 ■; „./ ,„ ... ... 15 80 „ „ ... ... 10 100 „ „ ... ... 6. lii addition to the above, there will be an. .Allotment' amongst the xmsuccessful .' shareholders of ICO Coupons for the' next distribution.
