Although this Company has a largo number of Horse Consultationists (about thirty) to contend against, some of whom under fictitious names have been moan enough to do their utmost to injure the promoters of the Hamburg Company, they cannot do so, as this Company is too well established and favourably known with the public all through New Zealand.

To a purchaser of 26 programmes one will bo given gratis. The Grand principle of these Hamburg Drawings is that a purchaser of 25 Programmes is guaranteed a prize, and the chances are in favor of the investor drawing a largo prize, as there are 220 largo prizes to 100 small ones. To an investor of 12 the chances are only 6 to 1 against him drawing a prize, and the Hoad Prize or any other may be drawn by any Investor of 10s. Read this.—ln’ loan'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 Company would not presume to tell the public that they have a number of chances and may 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.
