Consultation. gl*UK'n «(i NEWS, £I,UOO— 320 CASH PRIZES. NINTH GRAND HAMBURG DRAWING IS NOW OPEN. To a purchaser of 25 programmes one will be given gratis.



Prom the undoubted popularity and great success these drawings have ob tained throughout New Zealand the pro moters are enabled to bring them before the public every two months. Although this Company has a large number of Horse Gonsultationists (about thirty) to contend against, some of whom under fictitious names have been mean enough to do their utmost to injure the promotersof the Ham burg Company, they cannot do so, as this Company is too well established and fa vo ably known with tho[public all through New Zealand.



The large number of applications that came in too late will be registered in the ninth drawing ; or if the applicant wishes, the money will be returned. The ninth grand drawing for L 4,000 will close the end of Juno, and the Hamburg drawing will open on the Ist of July. This ninth grand drawing will consist of 320 money prizes, amounting to L 4,000 subscribed by 8,000 members at 10s each. The various Money Prizes will be dis tributed as follows :



1 £3OO prize; 1 £2OO prize; 1 £IOO prize; 2 £6O prizes; 10 £3O prizes; 15 £25 prizes; 15 £2O prizes; 15 £l6 prizes ; 160 £lO prizes; 11)0 £5 prizes. Total amount, £4,000; 320 money prizes. To a purchaser of 26 programmes one will be given gratis. The grand principle of these Hamburg Drawings is that a purchaser of 25 pro grammes is guaranteed a prize, aad the chances are in favor of the investor draw ing a large prize, as there are 220 large prizes to 100 small ones. To any 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. —ln Boaz’s Grand Ham burg Drawings the greatest odds are only 26 to 1 against an investor of 10a drawing a prize. But carefully note the enormous odds against investors drawing a hoise or cash prize in any of the horse consultations. The marbles are replaced for each drawing ot 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 Com pany would nut presume to tell the public that they have a number of chances and may win a number of prizes for a single in vestment of 10s.



Note. —Prize winners whether winning large or small prizes are informed that their names will not be made public with out their written consent. This ninth grand drawing for £4,000 will take place under the supeivision of a com mittee of eight subscribers, and the prizes will be paid over as early as possible after the drawing. Notice —Country cheques marked cor rect by Bank, only payable to a number, and Is added for exchange. Post-office, orders preferred, made payable only to Bo ax. Bank notes accepted.

From the number of people who inspect our books day by day, and the correspondence we receive (and answer) relative to our draw ings, distribution of prizes, and our busi ness generally, it seems almost superfluous to still cay “our books are always open for inspection;” yet such is the fact, an,4 our over increasing business shows plainly the result.

SOME unscrupulous firms are trying to force on the New Zealand people a Nostrum, under the cloak that it is made in the United States— WHICH IS NOT TRUE.

The absence of full information as to what is transpiring between the two countries may indicate that the political breeze is blowing harmlessly past 5 or, it may be the awful silence which generally precedes a storm. Jn either case, we ought to be' prepared for the worst. If a general war breaks out the price of nearly every article of commerce will rise. other comm ditiea wool and labor will go up. 1 Now is the time, therefore, to lay in a stock of clothing, before the general ad- 1 vance begins. In order that we may not be caught napping we have just purchased a Splendid Assortment of Winter Tweeds and other materials necessary to a well equipped tailoring establishment, which wa are prepared to offer at unusually low prices for cash. Regarding style and fit, it is almost needless for ns to repeat what everybody knows, viz , that by our scien tific mode of cutting, and the care exer* tised by us in fitting the figure, a mis-fit is an impossibility.— Craighead and Co., Merchant Tailors, Tanored street,

War or no war, we in Ashburton must “ eat to live,” in other words, every one must purchase tea, coffee, sugar and gene* ral groceries. When about to do so I would respectfully suggest that my shop be patronised, especially if purchases are to be for ready money. Mr Blank, a storekeeper, tells me that in |view of the great number of stores, and catting in prices, and general slaughter, it would soon be, in Ashburton, a case of the ‘‘survival of the fittest.’’ I hope to bo one of the survivors, for I never was in a better position to serve the public well In quality and prices of goods. I take this opportunity to thank my customers for the preference they continue to give my shop, and at same time to request monthly customers to settle promptly, thus en abling me to buy well, and to continue to serve them well.
