To any investor of £2 the cnances are only 6 to 1 against him drawing a prize, and the Head Pbize or any other may be drawn by any investor of 10s.

Bu(. carefully note some of the Horte Consultations on tbe Melbourne Cup, advertisirg 20,000 members at 10s each, equal to £10,000. The Cup gives 133 nominations, so thut the odds are over 150 to 1 against an investor drawing a horee. No w t alse the Cash Phizes drawn at the fame time, and calculate tbp odds ; you will find in each of the Cash awards that the odds vary fyom 200 to 5000 to 1 against an investor drawing a Cash Pbize. The whole 20,000 marbles ure advertised to be replaced for each Drawing of the Cabh PBIZES.-whioh give tbe enormous odds against investors. The Company would simply aß.k investors to calculate the odda before placing their investments in any horse consultation; and the 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 10b. .
