Persons tiring at a distance should be extremely cautious of whom they order Lottery Tickets or Cer tificates of packages of Tickets. The country ie flooded with bogus and swindling Lotteries. Lvery inducement is held out to get persons to invest mon ey in them. Capital Prizes of from $20,000 to $lO,- COO head their schemes —with tickets at One Dollar. $lOO,OOO Capital Prizes are offered, tickets $5. All such, in every instance, are frauds: it money is sent for tickets, it is so much thrown away without the shadow of a chance of getting a prize. Beware of all Lotteries where the Capital Prize is unusually large in comparison to the price of tickets. In eve ry instance where large prizes are offered for a small cost of tickets, put it down as a certain fraud. The Kentucky State Lotrery for the benefit of the Shelby College, under our management, is the only Lottery in the United States which is legally decided by the Maryland drawings; all other Lotteries which purport to be decided by the Maryland Drawings, aie frauds. THE MARYLAND STATE LOTTERIES. Purcha.-e in the Maryland State Lotteries, then you are sure of being right. And in ordering the Maryland Lotteries, you are sure of honest and fair I drawings. One thing look to, and that is, if roil order fiom any licensed vender in Baltimore, do not re ceive any but Managers' tickets and .Manager®' Printed Certificates of Packages. The Managers' Certificates have the number printed, anil have the lithographed signature of K- France & Co. No one hasa right to send his individual certifi cates, and if he does it, be sure there is a fraud at I the bottom of it. R. FRANCE & Co. Managers of Maryland State Lotteiies.
