GBAUD DISTRIBUTION OF MONEY PRIZES will take place similar to the Hamburg principle of drawings; nothing pf the kind has ever been introduced in N.Z„ and the system that will be carried out in this and future drawings will far surpass the chanaes of getting a prize than in any of the horse consultations, as people who have tried frequently in the numerous horse consultations know to their sorrow. A trial in this drawing may convince the most sceptical, as the drawing will take place as soon as the tickets are applied for, or not later than the 28th Feb. This grand drawing will consist of 160 money prizes, amounting in all to £2OOO subscribed by 4000 Members at 10s each. The various money prizes will be distributed as follows : 1 £3OO Prize, 1 £l5O Prize, 1 £IOO Prize, 2 £SO Prizes, 5 £2O Prizes, 100 £lO Prizes, 60 £5 Prizes. The Grand Principle of this and future drawings will be that anylnvestor purchas* ing 25 Tickets must secure a Prize, in fact, guaranteed one, as a prize will be drawn from the 160 Prizes to every 25 numbers up to the 4000. Any Investor of £l, the chances will only be 12 to 1 against him, and any investor of £2 will only be 6 fo 1 against him gettting a prize, and the Head Prize or any other may be drawn by any investor of 10s. This Drawing is on the most novel and will bo conducted 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 chances vary from 300 to 1 to 20,000 to 1 against getting a prize at all. The Drawing will take place under the immediate 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 all Investors only, may know after the drawing who the prizetakers are, by forwarding a stamped envelope already addressed, thus insuring perfect faith and fidelity to all Investors. These Drawings for £2OOO are to take place every two months, this present one to close on February 28th, and the following one to close on March 1. Prizes paid over within 24 hours after drawing. One prize must come out to every 25 tickets. NOTICE— Name and address of applicant must bo plainly written. Country cheques marked correct by bank only payable to a number, and Is added for exchange.
