gPOBTI N G E W S. J24,000.~320 CASH PBIZES, SIXTH GRAND "HAMBURG DRAWING 13 NOW OPHN I The Five previous Drawings were filled, and all applications that eamo too late for the Fifth will be registered in this Drawing, The Sixth Grand Drawing for £4OOO will close the end of December, and the Seventh Drawing will open on the Ist January. This Sixth 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 £3OO PRIZE 15 £25 PRIZES 1 £2OO PRIZE 15 £2O PRIZES 1 £lOO PRIZE 15 £l5 PRIZES 2 £5O PRIZES 100 £lO PRIZES 10 £3O PRIZES 100 £5 PRIZES Total Amount, £4OOO. 820 Money Prizes. The Grand principle of these 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 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 an investor of 10s. Read this Carefully.—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 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 piize winners, particularly requesting the company not on any account to make their names public. This Sixth Grand Drawing for £4OOO 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. Notice :—Country Cheques marked correct by Bank, only payable to a number, and Is. added for exchange. P.O. Orders preferred, made payable only to Boaz. Bank Notes accepted. Two 2d. stamps for reply and result. Registered letters and telegrams not received. Name and address of applicant should be plainly written.
