Being encouraged to promote the rapid and -May accumulation of Money by the successful -floating and drawing of her GRAND NOVEL CONSULTATION, Fort-ma has determined to place before the public another investment, founded ■ on the priociple adopted in Berlin, where specula* Hums of this nature are under the special charge : and guidance of the State. FOETUNA has had an extended Continental . experience of the details of these undertakings, and she is convinced that the Prospectus she now offers to the public will be heartily responded to. . This is an investment peculiarly suitable for ladies, who are generally precluded— by household ■ duties— from indulging in the excitement of the Baoecourse, and are therefore not inclined to invest their money where the success of a horse - forms the main element in the amount of the prizes .-gained. The Shares for each Distribution will be limited to 5000, at Ten Shillings each. Periodical allotments of these Investments will ■ lie made every three months, under the supervision ■ of a Committee. The sums allotted will be in the proportion of one Allotment to every 25 Coupons, as follows, viz.:— 1 Allotment of ... £500 I 3 Allotments of ... £25 1 150 7 „ „ ... 15 1 „ „ ... 100 1 80 „ „ ... 10 r 3 Allotments of ... 50 1 100 „ „ ... 5 4 „ „ ... 30 1 In addition to the above, there will be an Allotment amongst the unsuccessful shareholders of 100 ■ Coupons for tbe next distribution.
