Alter his honorable discharge, June 4,
1866. Mr.. Scace returned to Albany and
settled down once again to his business and
social interests. He has resided ID the city
ever since. Il would seem that nov. 81 all

been uninterrupted. Such was not 10 be the
case, for four years ago, while engaged in
experimenting the raising of the immense
smoisestack of the Albany Electric power
house, the lever Of lOosened windlass struck
him q heavy blow across the back. The
effect of the blow was not at first apparent,
he being able to leave his bed in few days.
But the worst was to follow, for without
warning he was seized with sciatic rheuma-
tism in all its virulencc. Untold agony fol-
lowed.
Said Mr.. Scace, II could not sleep for the
pain. No one will know the tortures the

Mr.. Scace exclaimed enthusiastically in CON.
clusion.
This is but one Of the many cases IN which
Pink Pills have taken such beneficent part
In the history of humanity.
Mr.. Scace is now enjoying the fruits of An
unusually large business managed solely by
himself and covering almost the entire east
ern portion Of the State. Mr.. Scace is also
an ivory carver of marked ability, which he
follows solely for his own pleasure. Many
little trinkets, carved by the light Of the
campfire, attest his skill in this direction.
Far from being solicited to recommend the
curative which had taken such load Of
misery from his life, in his gratitude his
praise for it is unstinted and uDceasing.
And from his own statements one may easily
zee that when he does cease to sing its vif-
tues, it will be TO answer the last mastering
