The Grand principle of these Hamburg Drawings is that a purchaser of 25. Programmes is guaranteed a Pbize, and the chances are in favor of the investor drawing a iaegb Pbize, as thexe are 220 eabge Feizes to 100 small ones. To any investor of £2 the chances are only 6 to 1 against him drawing a prize, and the Head Pbize or any other . may be drawn by any investor of 10a. Read this Cabebully.—ln Boaz's Grand Hamburg Drawings the greatest odds ore only 25 to 1 agaiDst an investor of 10s. drawing a prize. But carefully nofco some of the Horse Consultations on the Melbourne Cup, advertising 20,000 members at 10s each, equal to £10,000. The Cup gives 133 nominations, so that the odds are over 150 to 1 against an investor drawing a horse. Now lake tho Cash Pbizesi drawn at the aame time, and calculate the odds ; you will find in each of the Cash awards that the odds vary from 200 to 5000 to 1 against an investor drawing a Cash Pbize. The whole 20,000 marbles are advertised to be replaced. for each Drawing of tho Cash Pbizes, which give the enormous odds against investors. The Company would simply ask investors to calculate the odds before placing their iavestmentß in any horse consultation; and the Company would uot 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. This Fifth Grand Drawing for £4000 will tftke place under the supervision of a committee of eight gentlemen, and the prizes will be paid over as early as possible after the drawing.
