The Grand principle of these Hamburg Draw ings is that a purchaser of 25 Programmes is guaranteed a Prize, as it is so drawn that a >rlze must come out to every 25 numbers, and he chances are in favour of the investor draw ing a large prize, as there are 160 large prizes against SO small ones. To any investor of £2 the chances are only 6 to 1 against Mm drawing a prize, and the Head Prize or any other may De drawn by any investor ot 10s.

Tho large bulk of the Money in this Grand Drawing is not given away in one big prijje, as it is in the Horse Consultations, but you will bscrve in this Hamburg Drawing that the £3,000 is fairly proportioned into 240 Prizes, giving every shareholder an equal chance of etting a good prize.
