The simple fact that a count comes in
late will by no- means necessitate its
failure to get even the first prize. The
dots are very deceptive and these con
tests have been run by other papers for
several months, without anyone getting
the exact number. Even if some oije
eUe lias already hit the nail on the head
you are in no way hindered from hitting
iu the same place. If you hit thdre, no
matter if the count does not oome in
until Christmas Eveyou are good for a
| prize worth at least $20.00. Isn’t tho
game worth the candle? it costs . no
money at all.
