Consultation. gPORTING NSW?. 'M 1,000 320 CASH prizes. TENTH GRAND HAMBURG DRAWING IS NOW OPEN. To a purchaser of 25 programmes one trill be given 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 months. Although this Company has a large number of Horse Consultationists (about thirty) to contend against, some of whom under fictitious names - have been mean enough to dc their utmost to try and injure tbo promoters of the Ham burg Company, they cannot do. so, as this Company is too well established and fa vo ably known with the public all through New Zealand. The large number, of applications that came in too late will be registered in the tenth drawing j or if the applicant wishes, the money will be returned. __ The tenth grand drawing for L 4,000 will close the end of August, and the eleventh Hamburg drawing will open on the Ist of September. The tenth grand drawing will consist of S2O money prizes, amounting to L 4,000 subscribed by 8,000 members at 10s each. rhe various Money Prizes will be dis tributed as follows: — I £3OO prize; 1 £2OO prize; 1 £IOO prize; 2 £SO prizes; 10 £3O prizes; 16 £26 prizes; 15 £2O prizes; 16 £l6 prizes; 160 £lO prizes; 100 £6 prizes. Total amount, £4,000; 320 money prizes. To a purchaser of 26 programmes one will be given gratia. The grand principle of these Hamburg Drawings is that a purchaser of 26 pro grammes is guaranteed a prize, and the m in favor of the investor draw ing a huge prize, as there are 220 large prizes to 100 small ones. To an inves tor, of £2 toe chances are only 6 to 1 against Mm drawing a prize, and the head prize or any other may be drawn by an investor of 10s. Read this.—ln Boaz’a Grand Ham burg Drawings the greatest odds are only 25 to 1 against an Investor of 10a drawing a prize. But carefully, note the enormous odds against investors drawing i horse or cash prize in any of the hone consultations. The marbles are replaced for each drawing of the sash 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 Com* pany would not presume to tell the public that they bare a number of chances and nay win.a number of prizes for a single in vestment of 10a. Note.—Prize winners whether winning large or small prizes are informed that their names will not be made publio with out their written consent. TH| tenth grand drawing for £4,000 will take place under the supervision of a com mittee of eight subscribers, and the prizes ■rill be paid over as early as possible after die drawing.

' Medical. Q N B WORD. Dxab Friends —We have some hesita tion 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 based 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 our Haydook s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Yials of Dr Haydook’s New Liver Pills. The reason of this do mand is because we find In Haydock’ 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, must 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 epirit 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.
