One Of the most remarkable occurrences ever
given to the public which took place here in
our midst, has just come to our knowledge
and will undoubtedly awaken as much surprise
and attract as great attention as 1t has already
IN pewspaper circles. The facts are, briefly
as follows: MIR. WilliamA. Crombie, young
man formerly residing at Birmingham, sub
urb of Detroit, and now living at 2s7 Michigan
Avenue in this city, can truthfully say that he
has looked into the future world and yet re-.
turned to this. A representative of this pa
per has interviewed him upon this important
subject and his experiences are given 10 the
public for the first tine. he said:

tions for long while. My head felt dull and

''You have had an unusual experience, Mr..
Crombie," said the writer who had been breath

One Of the members Of the firm of Whitehead d

Mir. Crombie's name was mentioned.

uary all in type and announced in the Eccentric
that he could not live until its next issue. 1t
was certainly most wonderful case."
Rev. A. R. Bartlett, formerly pastor of the
NJ. Z. Church, at Birmingham, and now of
schoolcraft, Mich, in response to a telegram
replied:
"Mr. w. A. Crombie was q member of my
congregation at the time Of his sicknass. The
prayers Of the church were requested for
him on two different occasions. I was with
him the day he was reported by his physicians
aa dying, and consider his recovery almost a
miracle"
Not one person in million ever come SO
near death as did Mr.. Crombie and then recov-
er, but the men and women who are drifting
toward the same end, are legion. To note the
slightest symptoms, to realize their significance
and to meet them in time by the remedy which
has been shown to be most efficient, is duty
from which there can be no escape. They arc
fortunate who do this; they are on the sue
road to death who neglect It. III H
