Grand Distribution of Money Prizes "YY7ILL take place similar to the Hamburg v V - principle of drawings. Nothing of the kind has ever-been introduced in N.Z., and tbe system that will be carried out in this and future drawings will far surpass the chances of getting a Prize than in any of tbe Morse Consultations x as people' who .have frequently tried in tbe numerous horse consultations know to their sorrow. A trial in - this drawing may convince the moat sceptical, , m the drawing will take place as soon at the Tickets are applied for, or not later than 28th February. . This Grand Drawing will consist of 160 Mon&y Przes, amounting in all to £2000, subscribed by 40j0 Members at 10a. each. The various Money Prizes will be Distributed as follows:—1 £300 Prize, 1 £150 Prize, 1 £100 Prize, 2 £50 Prizes, 5 £20 Prizes, 100 £10 Prizes, 50 £5 Prizes. The grand principle of this and future drawings will be that any investor purchasing 25 Tickets must secure a prize -in fuct, guaranteed oue, as a prize will be drawn from the 160 Prizes to ever/ number up to the 4000. Any investor of £1, the cbauces will [be only 12 to 1 against him, and any investor of £2 it will only be 6 to 1 against him getting a Prize, and the HEAD pbize or any other may drawn by any investor of 10s. This Drawing is on tbe most novel, and will b» c nducted on the fairest, principle possible, and investors will find it to their advantage to speculate a trifle in this drawing in preference to any of the numerous horse consultations, where the chances vary from 300 to 1 to 20,000 to 1 againßt getting a prize at all. The Drawing will take place under the im- . mediate supervision of six gentlemen, and two youths will draw the Numbers and Prizes, and the Prizes will all be paid over within 24 hours after the drawing, or immediately after/the winning numbers are forwarded, deducting the usual 10 per cent, for working expenses; Investors . should apply at once; and investors only may. know, after the drawing who the prize-takers are, by forwarding a stamped^ envelope already addressed, thus • 'insuring perfect faith and fidelity to all investors. . . These Drawings for £2000 are to take place every two. months; this present one to close on 28fch Febrcisry, and.the following one to open on Ist Mar oh. Prizes paid oret within 24 hours after drawing. . One Prize must come to every 25 Tickets. ; Notice.—Name and Address of applicant must be plainly written.
