They Were Once Very Common and
Very Popular In Europe.
Lotteries We're common in ancient
Rome, and during the middle ages lot
teries were utilized by the Italian mer-
chants for the disposal OF their goods.
Some of the Italian states then adopted
the lottery as a means OF raising reve-
nue.. and the institution of state lotter-
les afterward became very common
and very popular throughout Europe.
The earliest English state lottery Of
which there is any record was in 1863,
when 10000 chances were sold at 10
shillings each. the dra wing taking place
IN the west door Of St. Paul's cathe-
dral
The prizes consisted of articles of
plate. and the profits were employed
for the repair OF certain barbors. Early
in the reign OF Queen Anne private lot
teries were suppressed las public nui'
sauces." but government lotteries. how.
ever. were still maintained. and from
1909 70 1924 considerable sums were
annually raised In lotteries authorized
by acts of parliament
The average yearly profit to the gov
eminent from 1893 to 1924 was oyeI
