The grand principle of these Hamburg Drawings is that a purchaser of 25 Programmes is guaranteed a prize, and the chances are in favour of the investor drawing a large prize, ns 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.— -In Boaz’s Grand Hamburg Drawings the greatest odds are only 25 to I 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 (ho enormous odds against investors. This Company would simply ask investors to calculate the odds before placing their investments in any horse consultations ; and this Company would not presume t* tell the public that they have a number of chances and may win a number of prizes for a single investment of 10a. NOTE.—Prize Winners whether winning large or small prizes are informed that their names will not be made publit without their written consent.
