Consultation. NEWS. <£1,000—320 CASH PRIZES. ■ EIGHTH GRAND HAMBURG DRAWING IS NOW OPEN. To a purchaser of 25 e will be given gratia. From the undoubted popularity and great success these drawings have obtained throughout New Zealand the promoters are enabled to bring them before the public every two months. There is also the fact that all these {drawings have filled some time before the advertised date of closing, which has enabled the Company to pay the prizes in full. The eighth grand drawing for L 4,000 will close the end of April, and the ninth Hamburg drawing will open on the Ist of May. This eighth grand drawing will consist of 320 money prizes, amounting to L 4,000 subscribed by 8,000 members at 10s each. The various Money Prizes will be distributed as follows : 1 £3OO prize; 1 £2OO prize; 1 £IOO prize; 2 £SO prizes; 10 £3O prizes; 15 £25 prizes; 15 £2O prizes; 15 £ls prizes ; 160 £lO prizes ; 100 £5 prizes. Total amount, £4,000; 320 money prizes. To a purchaser of 25 programmes one will be given gratis. 1 Thd grand principle of these Hamburg Drawings is that a purchaser _of 25 programmes is guaranteed a prize, aad the chances are in favor of the investor drawing a large prize, as there are 220 large prizes to 100 small ones. To any 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 consultations; and this Corn-* pany 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 Bth grand drawing for £4,000 will take place under the super vision of a committee of eight subscribers, and the prizes will be paid over as early as possible after the drawing.
