to « purchaser of 25 programmes one will bo giyen gratis. From the .undoubted popularity and great. success these drawings have ob tained, the promoters are enabled to bring them before the public every two ihbqtba. Althougb.this Company has a large number of Horse Consultationists (•bout thirty) to contend against, some of whom under fictitious names have been mean enoughjto dc their utmost to try and injure of the Ham burg Company, they cannot do so, as this Company is' too well ejtablished and fa vpably known with The public all through New Zealand. . . . t v Tbelarge number of applications that esme in too late will btl registered in the tenth drawing ; or If the applicant wishes, the money will be returned. The 5 tenth grand drawing for - Ed,ooo frill close the end of August, and the eleventh .Hamburg drawing will open - on the Ist of September. The tenth grand drawing will consist of 320 money prizes, amounting to L 4,000 subscribed 5 by 8,000 members at 10s each. • j lie viarions Money Prizes will be dis tributed as follows: — 1 £BOO prize; 1 £2OO prize; 1 £IOO prize; 2 £SO prizes; 10 £3O prizes; 16 £25 prizes; 16 £2O prizes; 15 £l6 prizes ; 160 £lO prizes; .100 £5 prizes. Total amount, £4,000; 820 money prizes. To a purchaser of 25 programmes one trill be given gratia. , _ The grandprluciple of these Hamburg Drawings Is that a purchaser of 25 pro grammes is guaranteed a prize, and the chances are In favor of the investor draw ing a large prize, as there are 220 large prizes to 100 small ones. To an Inves tor 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 Boas’s Grand Ham burg Drawings the greatest odds are only 26 to 1 against an Investor of 10s drawing a prize. But carefully note the enormous'odds rijainst investors drawing a- horse or cash prize in any of the horse' consultations. The marbles ate replaced for each drawing of* the cash prizes, which gives the enormous odds against investors. This Company would simply ask investors to calculate blb odda before placing their Investments In any horse consultations; and this Com pany would not presume to tell'the public ihat they have anumber of ohancea and pay win a number of prizes for a single lu res tmentoflOs. - Note.—Prize-winners whether winning srge or small -prizes are informed * that heir names will not be made public with int. their written consent This tenth grand drawing for £4,000 will akeplape under the anpei vision of a com alttoe pf eight subscribers, and the prizes rill bepaid over as early as possible after be drawing. ; Noocz-—Country cheques marked oor eot jby .Bank, only payable to a number, nd Is added, lor exchange.

Medical. Q N E WORD. .Dbab FaiENDS—We hare some hoaita tibn in addressing you in the manner fol lowing, but hope that it will not be looked at in any invidious light, when we state that it is only our regard for. your health that causes us to do it. We have been a Firm of Analytical Chemists for many, many years and have in the long course of this time manufactured certain Medicines that being baaed on scientific formula and absolute care and precision in manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far in advance of any other Pharmaceuti cal Preparations of the day. How suc cessful we have been in this, is only to note the extraordinary amount of the sales of onr Haydook a New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr flay dock'a New Liver Pills. The reason of this de mand is because we find in Baydock’s New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medicine. The Victories of Science — Electric Telegraphs, Steam and Printing —revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet ter, So, although there are countless Pills used for diseases and "claiming much as to their merit, the remarkable dis covery of Dr Haydook has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys tem. The Doctors, whose vast doses of four or five pills enfeeble the stomach and paralyse the bowels, xdnst give way to the man who restores health and appetite with one or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay dock’s New Liver Pills suffices to place the stomach in perfect order creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver is affected its func tions are restored, and if the Nervous System is enfeebled, it is invigorated and sustained. TRANSLATION.
